Serbian Hate Leader Mladen Obradovic Faces Charges Over Belgrade’s Violent Gay Pride Parade

Mladen Obradovic, the fanatical Serbian bigot who leads the the “ultranationalist” group Obraz, will face charges of inciting violence during Belgrade’s Oct. 10 gay pride parade, where more than 150 people — mostly police, but also revelers and spectators — were injured. Obradovic and two other Obraz members, who led an estimated 6,000 anti-gay protesters, were indicted just before Christmas and face 12-year prison sentences. Last year Obradovic successfully got Belgrade’s pride parade canceled by intimidating organizers so much police said they could not guarantee The Gays’ safety.
