Another car bomb attack rocks Belgrade

A relative of a protected witness involved in proceedings against a Serbian crime boss has died after a bomb exploded under his car on the outskirts of Belgrade on Tuesday.

The blast occurred at 2.00pm in the southwestern neighbourhood of Bele Vode, killing Radovan Joksovic, a cousin of Nebojsa Joksovic, a key witness in a case against convicted drug smuggler Darko Saric. A 35-year-old passenger in the car was also injured in the attack.

Serbian online news portal Blic reports that explosives were attached to the bottom of Joksovic's Audi A6 before they were remotely detonated. 

It is the second car bomb attack to occur in Belgrade in as many weeks.

On June 22, Basko Raicevic - also a cousin of a man with links to the Serbian mafia - was murdered when an unidentified assailant tossed a bomb into his moving car.
