Posljednji gračanički odmetnik i njegova družina: Alaga Zelenkić - između legende i stvarnosti.

Alaga Beganović (1916-1948), better known by his nickname Alaga Zelenkić, was the leader of an outlaw group that was active in the Gračanica area in the immediate post-war period from 1945 to 1948. He gathered a small group of his fellow-comrades, mostly former members of defeated military formations and civilians who have been hiding from the Communist authorities. Alaga and his band, with their appearance and minor guerrilla actions, resisted the communist regime and its representatives. Relying on his associates among civilians, he successfully resisted the pursuit and raids until the first half of 1948, when he was betrayed, discovered and killed. Like many other rebels and outlaws, he has become a legendary figure of some sort even during his life, and in folk tales and traditions his name is still alive, both in the Gračanica region and wider. This article, based on collected memories, and available archival sources, attempts to lighten and describe Alaga’s life path and his outlaw period. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
