Key coordinator of the Sarajevo assassination

Danilo Ilić

A Bosnian Serb teacher, journalist, and nationalist activist from Austro-Hungarian-ruled Bosnia. Connected with the Serbian secret society "Black Hand" and "Young Bosnia," which aimed for South Slavic unification, he became one of the central figures organizing the assassination plot against Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife in the 1914 Sarajevo Incident. He recruited Gavrilo Princip, Nedeljko Čabrinović, Trifko Grabež, and others into the plan and arranged the handover of weapons and explosives. Arrested after the incident, he was sentenced to death for treason and murder and was executed by hanging in Sarajevo on February 3, 1915.
