dbo:abstract
  • Milica Kostić (Serbian Cyrillic: Милица Костић; 24 April 1956 – 4 September 1974) was a high school student from Serbia (then part of Yugoslavia) who at age 18 died by suicide to avoid being raped. She was lured to a 12th floor apartment in Kruševac by a group of young men who then tried to rape her. To avoid being assaulted, she jumped from the window of the apartment and fell onto the street. She died from the injures two days later, but gave the police full description of the incident before death. This event sparked an outrage across Yugoslavia and demonstrations against perpetrators were held in Kruševac. Media outlets gave large publicity to the case and public was unanimous in condemnation. Most commentators praised Kostić's bravery and heroic death. Five perpetrators (one of whom was a minor) were sentenced to prison. It is not known for sure how much time each of them spent in prison. It was reported that one of them, Tomislav Ž. Nikolić, was sentenced to 13 years and was released after 9½. (en)
