Socialist party officials carry the flag-draped coffin of their late leader Slobodan Milosevic at Belgrade airport March 15, 2006, after its arrival on a flight from Amsterdam. The body of Milosevic arrived in Serbia on Wednesday for private burial in his home town, after two days of behind-the-scenes wrangling by remaining loyalists for a higher-profile funeral in the capital. The Socialists plan to display the body in a tent on the sidewalk outside the old federal parliament in the heart of the city -- the same sidewalk that in 2000 overflowed with anti-Milosevic protesters yelling "He's finished".
