Montenegrin President Milo Djukanovic (R) accompanied by Natasa Zugic (C) wife of the murdered security advisor Goran Zugic, and Poleksija Djurovic (L) his mother, attends commemoration in Podgorica June 1. Goran Zugic, considered one of Djukanovic's closest and most reliable allies, was shot dead on Wednesday evening in the courtyard of his apartment block in the Montenegrin capital Podgorica. The murder followed a series of mysterious assassinations of officials and underworld figures in Serbia, the dominant republic in the Yugoslav Federation led by Slobodan Milosevic. But it was the first such killing in Montenegro. IM/AA
