It is not known if he was captured and no further information about him is available at the moment.
Multiple sources confirmed to “Dan” that Mehovic had left Montenegro a long time ago and that since then he has fought in multiple military formations from Iraq to Libya and Syria.
His family left city of Bar the same year, they have Syrian passports and have been living in that country for many years now.
Embassy of Serbia in Damascus, which represents Montenegrin citizens too, could not confirm or deny this information.
From those diplomatic circles it was said to “Dan” that they don’t have the obligation to be informed about the persons with Syrian citizenship, and that this is probably the reason why they do not have any information regarding this specific case.
Asmir Mehovic belongs to the rebel unit where his crew members are from Plav, Rozaje, Novi Pazar, Pec and Sarajevo, among which was also Mirza Haklaj from Podgorica. Haklaj was killed recently, when jihadists attacked a military convoy near Damascus.
