Mala Cana: I Was Covered in Bruises, Andrija Watched
Andrija Bajic's widow described on Pink TV's morning show, for the first time, the alleged assault by his daughters at a hospital in Pancevo, and announced recorded phone calls with her late husband.
Mala Cana, the widow of singer Andrija Bajic, said for the first time on Pink TV’s morning show on September 12 that Bajic’s daughters physically attacked her at a hospital in Pancevo while he lay in his hospital bed.
“They physically attacked me in Pancevo, right in front of him,” Mala Cana said on Pink TV’s morning show.
The singer says she was left bruised after the incident, and that what hurt her was not what happened to her, but the fact that her husband watched it happen.
“I was covered in bruises. It hurt him, but what hurts me is that he watched it,” she added.
Conflict at the Pancevo Hospital
The singer says the conflict with the daughters began right at the hospital in Pancevo, while Bajic was being treated, and that she has since lost a lot of weight and visits the cemetery every day. According to her, she used to spend every day outside the hospital, from seven in the morning until nine at night, without exception.
She says he would call out to friends by name to let her come closer, while his daughters tried to keep her away from the room.
How Mala Cana and Andrija Bajic Met
There was a 41 year age gap between the singer and Andrija Bajic. Cana says a shared love of music brought them together.
“Music is what brought us together and connected us,” Mala Cana said on Pink TV’s morning show.
Bajic had three children, all daughters, all older than Mala Cana. The singer claims his daughters forbade him from remarrying.
“His children forbade him from getting married,” Cana said.
According to the Kurir portal, Mala Cana and Andrija Bajic signed a support agreement in front of a lawyer, covering the house in Devojacki Bunar, near Vrsac, where the couple lived in recent years.
Cana also said that she and Bajic wanted a church wedding, and that a bishop had told them everything was arranged, but Bajic fell ill before it could happen. She also denied reports that she had been romantically involved with Bajic’s late colleague Bora Drljaca, saying the two were only friends and that Drljaca had been helping with a planned tour of the United States.
Recorded Phone Calls
In the same appearance, Mala Cana said she has recordings of phone calls with her late husband, made on a number she claims no one else knew about.
“He asked me to buy him this phone, a number that nobody else knew about. All of these calls are recorded,” Mala Cana said on Pink TV’s morning show.
The singer did not say when she plans to make the recordings public, but said the conflict with Bajic’s daughters is still far from resolved.
Despite everything, Mala Cana says she is not giving up on music, which she still considers her main profession.
“I will keep singing, that’s my profession first,” Mala Cana said on Pink TV’s morning show.
She also described the day of the funeral, saying she dressed her late husband’s body herself, while she was not allowed to enter the family home to get his clothes, so his belongings were handed to her over the gate.
So far, Bajic’s daughters have not publicly responded to Mala Cana’s latest claims.
