PRISTINA (Reuters) -Kosovo has asked NATO troops to airlift a former Serb policeman who was detained two weeks ago but could not be transferred elsewhere because local Serbs demanding his release set up barricades to prevent him being moved.
Dejan Pantic was arrested on Dec. 10 on charges of assaulting serving police officers during a previous protest.
