Belgrade: A two-year-old girl who disappeared in eastern Serbia last week was killed and two suspects have been arrested, President Aleksandar Vucic said Thursday, following a frantic search for the missing toddler.
Danka Ilic went missing on March 26 in the eastern city of Bor, prompting Serbian authorities to use for the first time its version of an Amber alert system for child abduction emergencies, to send text messages nationwide about the incident.
"The police have arrested two individuals who have killed the little girl. As far as I understand, both of them have confessed to the crime," Vucic told government officials.
"What kind of monsters are we dealing with?" he added.
Serbia's interior ministry later confirmed that the two suspects had confessed and said the search for the girl's body was still underway.
