Damir Dokic sentenced to 15 months in prison

RUMA, Serbia (AP)—Tennis player Jelena Dokic’s father was sentenced Thursday to 15 months in jail on charges that he threatened the Australian ambassador in Serbia.

Damir Dokic was found guilty of “endangering the security” of the ambassador in Belgrade and unlawful possession of weapons, which were impounded during a police search of his home.

Dokic was brought under police escort to the court in Ruma, a town about 30 miles northwest of Belgrade. He did not comment, but his lawyer confirmed the sentence to The Associated Press.

Dokic was arrested last month after reportedly saying he would blow up ambassador Clair Birgin’s car if she didn’t stop negative articles about him from being published in Australia.
