Justice Department Seeks to Denaturalize Illinois Man Who Allegedly Concealed Service in Military Unit that Perpetrated Srebrenica Massacre

The Justice Department today filed a denaturalization lawsuit against Nedjo Milosevic, a native of the former Yugoslavia, who, according to the Department’s complaint, was a member of one of the military units responsible for the Srebrenica massacre—the largest mass atrocity in Europe since the Holocaust. The complaint alleges that Milosevic concealed his military service in order to enter the United States as a refugee, and continued to conceal it throughout his naturalization proceedings. The civil complaint was filed in federal court in the Northern District of Illinois.
