The case remained open until last April, when police unearthed his remains from a ditch in northern Vojvodina during the investigation into Serbian Prime Minister Zoran Djindjic's assassination.
Slučaj je bio otvoren do travnja prošle godine, kada je policija tijekom istrage ubojstva premijera Zorana Đinđića, otkrila Stambolićeve posmrtne ostatke u jednoj jami na sjeveru Vojvodine.
