MUP confiscates large arms cache in Preševo

PREŠEVO -- Serbian police (MUP) officers have made arrests and seized a large number of weapons and equipment in the country's volatile south.
Two ethnic Albanians, identified as Nazmija Hajredini, 58, and Adnan Najredini, 24, both Preševo residents, were arrested.

Heavy weapons, military equipment, and the so-called Kosovo Liberation Army, KLA, videos and propaganda material were confiscated in their home, MUP has confirmed, according to Beta news agency.

A MUP statement issued today in Belgrade adds that the cache included five automatic rifles, two RPGs, 20 mines, ten machine guns, five pistols, a number of hand grenades and more than 20,000 bullets.

Uniforms with KLA insignia, as well as those with this terror group's local offshoot, the so-called UCPMB, were also found in the house, as were field radios.

KLA propaganda and videos, and Albanian and U.S. flags were confiscated.

Police have identified Nazimi Hajredini as a former KLA and UCMPB member, who was the chairman of the UCPMB veterans' association until April last year.

The suspects will now be taken to an investigative judge, and have criminal charges filed against them.

MUP says its officers continue work on identifying the remaining members of the group.
