One of the accomplices in the murder of Serbian warlord Arkan, a close aide to former Yugoslav strongman Slobodan Milosevic, has been arrested in Vienna, Austrian police have confirmed. Dragan Nikolic, who was sentenced in absentia to 15 years for the killing, was arrested on Tuesday in his Vienna apartment.
