The Hague (Netherlands):
A swirl of suspicion surrounds Slobodan Milosevic's death, with evidence emerging Monday that the former Yugoslav leader took medication he wasn't supposed to.
Among the scenarios being floated: drugs smuggled into prison, a poisoning plot and the possibility Milosevic was undermining his own treatment in hopes of being sent to Moscow, where his wife and son live in exile.

Milosevic's lawyer, Zdenko Tomanovic, said Monday that Russian forensic experts would perform a second autopsy on the former Serbian president, whose abrupt death in a Hague prison cell Saturday was initially determined to have been caused by a heart attack.
There also was concern that a funeral in Serbia could ignite nationalist passions and cause turmoil for the pro-democracy authorities who toppled Milosevic in 2000.
