Slobodan Šaranović

Šaranović's father Nikola was arrested by Communist forces after World War II while he was ill of typhoid fever. Slobodan would later state that his father had been sentenced to death by a Communist court and executed after his refusal to beg for pardon. Nikola Šaranović had a wife and two sons, Slobodan and Branislav.[3] Slobodan was a student of medicine which was why one of his nicknames was Doctor.[4] He was married to Gordana and had a daughter Milica.[5]

The conflict between Slobodan and clan of Luka Bojović began in mid-2009. On 27 July 2009 Slobodan Radonjić, whose godfather was Slobodan Šaranović, left his home to meet two associates of Luka Bojović. Since that day he is considered missing, though his family and Šaranović believed that he was murdered.[6] The reason for his murder was Radonjić's debt to Filip Korać, Bojović's closest associate, for 1 kg of cocaine.[7]

Šaranović's brother Branislav was murdered in Belgrade in October 2009. At his brother's funeral, Slobodan Šaranović publicly offered one million EUR for information about the person who paid for the murder of his brother. He even publicly offered the reward to people who killed his brother if they point to those who ordered and paid for the execution.[8] The reward went unpaid because Slobodan received necessary information without it. According to some sources, it was the Bojović family who was behind the murder. On 28 April 2013, Luka's brother, Nikola Bojović, as well as a purported accomplice, Miloš Vidaković, were killed in Belgrade.[9]
