Biography
[edit]Atanasije Petrović Taško was an Aromanian (also referred to as Cincar) from Kruševo, who moved to the city of Kumanovo for his trade, being a tailor. In Kumanovo, he decided to study for priesthood at a seminary, and at the same time he married the daughter of a local merchant. Around 1895 he became a priest of the Serbian Orthodox Church.[1]
Being on the side of the Serbs, he was threatened by the Bulgarian terrorist organization the Internal Macedonian Revolutionary Organization, better known by acronym VMRO, whose aim was to make neighbouring territories a part of Greater Bulgaria. When the Serbian Chetnik Organization was founded, Father Taško became the leader of the Kumanovo committee, a branch of the Serbian Chetnik Organization. VMRO terrorists made good their threat by killing him in Kumanovo on 15 January 1905.[2][3][4] In order to avenge the murder of Atanasije Petrović Taško, members of the Serbian revolutionary organization from Kumanovo killed the Exarchic priest Alexander,[5] exactly on the fortieth day after the death of Taško, at the time when the memorial service was held for him.[6] It was the beginning of tit for tat warfare that would continue for decades, between two kingdoms, Bulgaria and Yugoslavia.
