As far as I can remember, Svetlana Raznatovic was arrested during Operation Saber for various reasons.

Later, the relevant services had information that Dušan Spasojević, the leader of the Zemun clan, asked him to serve as an alibi during the action of killing Zoran Đinđić, which he did not explicitly reject, the leader of the New Party Zoran Živković told Danas during the action. Police. Saber played the role of Prime Minister of Serbia.
This topic was reopened during the Hit Tweet show, which aired Sunday night on Pink TV. The program developed a discussion about the reasons why Svetlana Raznatovic was arrested during Operation Saber. In addition to her, the chairman of the Liberal Democratic Party, Cedomir Jovanovic, who was Deputy Prime Minister in 2003, as well as the owner of Pink television, Zeljko Mitrovic, also participated in the discussion.
As Zivkovic emphasizes, decisions about who will be arrested during Operation Saber were not influenced by any of the politicians, but exclusively by people from the police, the prosecution and the Security Information Agency.
– The only political influence I had during Operation Saber was to prevent anyone from influencing the course of the investigation. The decision on the arrests was made exclusively by the authorities. In the case of Svetlana Raznatovic, it is obvious that they assessed the reasons for his arrest, taking into account the closeness to the suspects, and then unequivocally demonstrated that they were involved in the murder of Prime Minister Zoran Djindjic, says Zivkovic.
The name of Svetlana Raznatovic, widow of Zeljko Raznatovic Arkan, was heard during the trial for the murder of Prime Minister Djindjic. Thus, in February 2007, associate witness Dejan Milenković Bagzi said that Dušan Spasojević, the assassinated leader of the Zemun clan, intended that Ražnatović be his alibi for the murder of the Prime Minister.
On that occasion, he said that Spasojevic loaned Svetlana Raznatovic a million euros without interest, and that she did not return the money.
A year before that, the NIN weekly published an article referring to the statement that, immediately after the arrest, Svetlana Raznatovic gave to the then special prosecutor Jovan Prijic. In that statement, Raznatovic allegedly noted that in February 2003, Spasojevic arrived at the FC Obilic stadium and that he urgently invited them to see each other.
“Spasojevic said that something terrible would happen soon, that there would be a big uproar, that he had a big problem, that Chume accused him of more than 50 murders, because of Ibar, kidnappings, he especially mentioned Stambolic and said:” He is putting tremendous pressure on us. , wants to arrest us and destroy us all. ”I realized in an instant what it was about, and following the newspapers and all those inscriptions, I was referring to Zoran Djindjic. I would say he said something to the effect: “I have to beat them all.” After he said that to me, I was silent the whole time. Then he said to me in the continuation of the conversation: ‘Would you like to help me when all this happens? If all that happened, he would go to his house quickly “to give him an alibi that way,” it is stated in the minutes published by NIN. According to that text, Raznatovic gave his consent at the end of the conversation due to his pressure and persuasion.
After the announcement, Svetlana Raznatovic publicly denied having told the special prosecutor that, claiming that Spasojevic never asked for an alibi for the Prime Minister’s murder.
– It is not true that Spasojevic asked me for an alibi for the murder of Djindjic, that is a lie. The only truth is that, in early 2003, he came up to me and asked, “Wait, could I, for example, tell the police that I was with you, but I really wasn’t.” I immediately told him that he couldn’t do that and that was it. I never spoke to Spasojevic about anything about Djindjic – said Ceca. He also said that he did not know what was written in the minutes, but he knew what was true. As this document was not read at the trial for the murder of Zoran Djindjic, it is unknown what exactly Svetlana Raznatovic said to the special prosecutor.
In the same main trial where he spoke about the relationship between Svetlana Raznatovic and Dusan Spasojevic, the witness Milenkovic also said that the popular singer suggested the Zemun clan leader to kidnap Pink TV owner Zeljko Mitrovic.
– He told us that he spoke to Ceca and that she told him that Mitrović did not know what to do with the money, that he took him abroad in bags and that he did not know how to wash it, Milenković stated. Following that testimony, the owner of Pink TV publicly banned the broadcast of Svetlana Raznatovic’s videos and her appearance on shows on Pink TV until further notice, Bugzi told the Special Court.
In addition to the four months she spent in custody during Operation Saber, Svetlana Raznatovic also spent eight months under house arrest. In 2011, he signed a plea agreement, admitting that he illegally appropriated money from the transfer of ten FC “Obilić” soccer players to foreign clubs and held 11 weapons without permission. She was sentenced to one year of house arrest, which was reduced by four months in custody, as well as a fine of 1.5 million euros.
