The last death penalty in Serbia was carried out in 1992, on Valentine’s Day on February 14. Then Johan Drozdek was shot in Sombor because he killed and later raped six-year-old Ivana Salijević from Karavukovo.
The tragedy, which this place near Odžak of Vojvodina had not experienced before, occurred when Drozdek, to take revenge on her father, took the girl on her father’s bicycle to the village cemetery, where he first killed her and then raped her.
The residents of Karavukovo, near Sombor, saw Johan take little Ivana on a bicycle somewhere.
He promised her a bar of chocolate if she traveled with him. Based on the footprints on the large brick, found next to Ivana’s body, it was determined that the girl who was kidnapped and screamed was first killed and then raped.
In the courtroom of the Sombor District Court, Drozdek did not deny the crime.
Speaking of the reason, he stated that he was very angry because “Jemo” did not give him a bicycle, and that he was angry that he did not know what he was doing. He said he was “upset for the girl when she started crying and begging louder and louder to take her home.”
“I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have killed her,” Judge Drozdek said.
On February 26, 2002, the Serbian National Assembly amended the Penal Code abolishing the death penalty. According to art. 24 of the current Constitution of 2006: “Human life is inviolable. There is no death penalty in the Republic of Serbia.”
The death penalty in Serbia was carried out by an eight-member firing squad, whose members did not know which of them fired live bullets and which “white bullets”.
As time passed, regulations on the death penalty were relaxed and there were fewer and fewer death sentences. In Serbia, which has been part of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia since 1992, the courts handed down 19 death sentences between 1991 and 2002, none of which were carried out.
