All of Europe was looking for little Danka from Serbia – and hoped for a happy ending. That hope was buried Thursday. The girl is dead, the body is said to have been dumped in a landfill by two men after the child was allegedly run over.
Was it a quick reaction or cool thought to save your own head? The more details become known about the death of little Danka – she would have been two years old on May 6 – the more tragic the case becomes, which affects the whole of Europe.

Whether their version that the child died in an accident is true is the subject of the current investigation. According to Serbian media reports, the workers also said they were drunk during the incident. The statements would not exactly match. The fact is, however, that Danka’s body has not yet been found.
