Talk:Đorđe Martinović
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
There are several important things that the article doesn't mention:
- the Yugoslav People's Army colonel who first interviewed Djordje later admitted that he was forced to do it, and was punished for that;
- a London doctor, Peter Holly, operated Djordje and confirmed that he could not self-inflict the injury, and was later threatened for that;
- Stane Dolanc's comment which appears to have caused quite an uproar;
- Director Milorad Bajic filmed a documentary about the event which was forbidden;
- Djordje was legally exhonerated later, and the country was ordered to pay him 100,000 DEM which was never done;
- probably more.

- This book says that it is all false: http://books.google.com/books?id=yWgjmGAoOZgC&pg=PT114&lpg=PT114&dq=djordje+martinovic&source=web&ots=5rRzWGhkce&sig=zmeVRJuWUTpJhHmH_Vkt6JgH14Q&hl=en
- Moreover, "The late former Yugoslav Interior Minister Stane Dolanc, who was Slovenian, told Ljubljana Television that police investigations showed that Martinovic's account of his injuries was a fabrication. Dolanc added: "Martinovic is the first Serbian samurai who committed hara-kiri."

[edit] Page name
Can we move this to the cannonical spelling, Đorđe Martinović? Duja► 14:13, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
- Done. Linux users with some keyboard layouts should be able to type that as altgr+f 'đ' and altgr+shift+d 'Ð'. - Francis Tyers · 20:36, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
