Laplje Selo or Fshati Llap (Albanian: Fshati Llap or Kadiköj, Serbian: Лапље Село) is a village/settlement in the Gračanica municipality of Kosovo, Serbia.[1] Laplje Selo was part of the Pristina municipality before the Gracanica municipality was created.
It is a Serb enclave; a supermajority of ethnic Serbs. During the Kosovo War, Serbs were displaced, after more than a decade, sixteen families returned to their village, on February 6, 2010.[2] That number has since increased to just over 20 families.[3]
Various problems persist for returnees. There is no running water,[4] and harassment takes place, such as cemetery desecration.[5]
