A Montenegrin court on Thursday jailed three Serbian nationals for involvement in a foiled coup plot last October. Aleksandar Aleksic, Perica Andric and Milos Acimovic were jailed for five months each after they pleaded guilty as part of a deal with prosecutors.
They admitted to "creating a criminal organisation" which was planning to seize parliament and assassinate former premier Milo Djukanovic on election day.
