The arrest of war crimes fugitive Serbian Gen Ratko Mladic after 16 years finally resulted from pressuring his supporters and draining his finances to reduce his hideout options.
The family complained for months that relatives faced pressures.
His son lost company computer contracts... and his daughter-in-law was fired from a state-owned company despite good job reviews.
In 2002, the government passed a law authorizing extraditions to The Hague and Mladic's options shrank rapidly.
President Tadic has promised to investigate Mladic's protection and ferret out Radko's loyalists that could include high government officials...and even Serbian Orthodox priests.
