Radivoje Papović
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Radivoje Popovic was rector of the University of Priština appointed by Serbian government after reduction[1] of Kosovo's autonomy.
Popovic was seen by Albanians as a high-profile symbol of Serbian oppression in Kosovo[citation needed]; on January 16, 1997, he was seriously injured in a car bomb attack blamed on the rebel Kosovo Liberation Army. A KLA member, Nait Hasani, was convicted of the bombing and sentenced to 22 years imprisonment. He was released from his jail in Serbia in March 2002.[2]
