MILAN ŽUGELJ AND ANDRIJA HEBRANG IN THE DOCUMENTS OF THE BELGRADE GESTAPO AND UDBA
Nikola Milovančev
Abstract
Historiography has so far not paid much attention to Milan Žugelj, an acquaintance and comrade-in-arms of Andrija Hebrang in the communist movement, and according to Gestapo and Udbina documents, a man whose death was caused by a close connection with Hebrang. Milan Žugelj was arrested twice because of Andrija Hebrang: the first time in 1942, when Hebrang marked him as his intelligence informant in the Ustasha prison, and the second time in 1948, when Žugelj was arrested on suspicion that Hebrang and he had agreed to work together for the Gestapo and Ustasha organs. That is why we decided to publish 19 documents: 16 Gestapo documents and 3 documents, which are the primary material for shedding light on the activities of Andrija Hebang and Milan Žugelj; of these 19 documents, only two have been published so far (in M. Milatović’s book on Hebrang, 1952), but also these two in the form of facsimiles, without citing an archival source.
