Kosovar lawyer Arbër Jashari has raised strong concerns over the latest espionage scandal involving a Croatian Air Force officer and his Serbian partner from Mitrovica, warning that it is further proof of Belgrade’s ongoing use of espionage as a strategic weapon against Kosovo.
Following Croatian media reports that Ana Dragomir Murganić from Mitrovica and her partner, a Croatian military pilot, were arrested on the island of Vis under suspicion of spying for Serbia, Jashari stressed the urgent need for domestic investigations into Srpska Lista’s activities.
“Espionage – One of Serbia’s Main Weapons Against Kosovo”
“Day by day, it becomes clearer that the Serbian state has used and continues to use espionage as one of its main weapons against the Republic of Kosovo,” Jashari wrote.
He pointed out that the recent arrest in Croatia demonstrates once again how Serbian structures, through agents embedded inside Kosovo, have been undermining state institutions, security, and justice processes.
Call for Investigations Into Srpska Lista
According to Jashari, the case reinforces long-standing suspicions that Srpska Lista does not function as a normal political party but rather as an extension of Belgrade’s destabilization agenda in Kosovo.
“In case these suspicions are confirmed, this is yet another proof that Srpska Lista is not fulfilling the role of a genuine political party, but instead serves Belgrade as an instrument of destabilization and ethnic division,” Jashari stated.
He urged Kosovo’s authorities to launch immediate investigations, to identify and prosecute any individuals within Srpska Lista who may have engaged in activities that compromise Kosovo’s sovereignty and security.
Espionage Case with Regional Implications
Reports from Croatia suggest that the arrested pilot, who had also previously served in KFOR in Kosovo, allegedly leaked classified information to his Serbian partner, who then passed it on to figures within Srpska Lista.
These revelations, according to analysts, show the extent of Serbian intelligence operations in the region, combining both military and political channels to gain influence and compromise Kosovo’s institutions.
Growing Pressure on Kosovo Institutions
The case has sparked debate in Pristina over the security threat posed by espionage networks linked to Belgrade. Civil society and legal experts warn that international missions and Kosovo’s own institutions must be more vigilant against infiltration attempts, particularly in sensitive areas such as justice, defense, and international cooperation.
Jashari’s statement amplifies public calls for greater accountability from Srpska Lista, which continues to operate within Kosovo’s political system while maintaining direct ties to President Aleksandar Vučić and his ruling structures in Serbia.
