PPF Secretary General Owais Aslam Ali in his letter demanded brought to justice those responsible in Milju\u0161 assault and the state of impunity that continues to exist for the perpetrators of attacks against journalists in Croatia should come to end.<\/p>\n

According to Canadian Journalists for Free Expression (CJFE), on June 2, 2008, two unidentified men assaulted Milju\u0161 with metal bats near his house in Zagreb. The attackers escaped after bystander intervened, but he still suffered a concussion, broken arm and injuries to his face. His family also received death threats, warning them that Milju\u0161 should stop reporting.<\/p>\n

Since 20-years Milju\u0161 reported on corruption and organized crimes, including issues around Kne\u017eija, a powerful criminal organization that may have ties in government and law enforcement.<\/p>\n

It is well documented that journalists who cover organized crimes, corruption and war crimes have been at greater risk of harassment and violence in Croatia; Milju\u0161\u2019s reporting is believed to be the reason for his attack.<\/p>\n
