Alija Alijagić (Serbian Cyrillic: Алија Алијагић; 1896 – 8 March 1922) was a Bosnian communist and assassin known for murdering Milorad Drašković.[1]

The Communist Party of Yugoslavia condemned the act. Nevertheless, this inspired King Alexander to make a law concerning protection of the state that made the communist party illegal.[2]
