Mrs Milosevic

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

The wife of former Yugoslav president Slobodan Milosevic has been variously described as "Lady Macbeth", the "Red Witch of Belgrade" and a praying mantis. She was so devoted to her husband that she slashed away all obstacles in his path, but then went on to destroy him too. Meriel Beattie investigates how much influence Mira Markovic really had over her husband; whether she really was a "femmefatale" or ultimately the victim of a deeply sexist society.
