The death threats to Serbia’s former president Boris Tadic appeared on Thursday simultaneously in Belgrade, and the Bosnia-Herzegovina Serb entity Republika Srpska capital Banja Luka believed to be related to the life imprisonment of Ratko Mladic, Bosnian Serb wartime military leader.

Belgarde arrested Mladic during Tadic’s presidency in May 2011, after he was at large for 15 years.

Mladic was convicted of genocide, crimes against humanity, and war crimes before the International Residual Mechanism for Criminal Tribunals (IRMCT) which passed the final verdict of life imprisonment on Tuesday.

Graffiti in Belgrade central parts of Dorcol and Vracar read “Death to Boris Tadic,” while Banja Luka’s stickers said “Die to Your Mother,” Nova.rs website reported.

Twitter exploded with photos and comments on the threats.

Smrt vi lepo"u svoja četiri zida"!
Ko se tudjoj smrti raduje i zeli je,taj nista nije naučio iz patnje svog naroda i na tu patnju je time pljunuo!
A Ratko je jedna neopevana kukavica i fukara,njegovo delo nema nikakve veze sa čojstvom i junaštvom al ima sa sramotom i kukavičlukom pic.twitter.com/62eITZsy0E

Opposition activists in Belgrade soon covered them with white paint.

Sarajevo-born Tadic was Serbia’s President from 2004 to 2012.
