biography

Mitja Ribičič was born in Trieste in 1919 as the son of the youthful writer Josip Ribičič .

In 1941 he became a member of the Communist Party of Yugoslavia and soon after that of the Osvobodilna Fronta of Slovenia. Together with Ivan Maček "Matija" he was a member of the OZNA leadership . In this function, he and Bojan Polak were also responsible for setting up the “concentration camps” for captured Domobranci , political opponents and ethnic Germans in Slovenia, including Teharje and the Sterntal camp .

Ribičič was appointed on May 18, 1969 as the successor to Mika Špiljak chairman of the Federal Executive Council (Prime Minister) of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (SFRY) . He held this office for two years until July 30, 1971. He was then followed by Džemal Bijedić .

Later he was between June 1982 and June 1983 as the successor to Dušan Dragosavac chairman of the presidium of the BdKJ . He was succeeded by Dragoslav Marković .

After more than eleven years of investigation, the Slovenian public prosecutor charged Ribičič with genocide in May 2005 . He was charged with the mass murder of 234 alleged collaborators of the Nazi regime between 1945 and 1946 . However, it was decided on insufficient suspicion and the allegations were therefore not pursued in Slovenia.
