Victim had 2nd identity
Did the gunman who opened fire on upscale, normally tranquil Grandvista Crescent in Vaughan set out to murder Alexander Vucovic, a wealthy Yorkville jeweller, cocaine importer and entertainment district regular?
Or was the shooter’s target Kosto Barjaktarovic, a West Coast high-end car thief, gangster, suspected hit man and police snitch?
Whatever the case, the result of the July 2 homicide was the same, since Vucovic and Barjaktarovic were the same person.
Before he moved to the GTA, Vucovic, 37, lived in Vancouver under the name Kosto Barjaktarovic, associating with Indo-Canadian gangsters involved in a bloody feud. He changed his name to Vucovic after testifying in 1995 against West Coast gangsters in a murder trial.
Someone who might be able to help untangle things for York Regional Police homicide investigators is Michael Costa of Woodbridge, but he is no longer believed to be in Canada.
The Toronto Star has learned that Costa and Vucovic were romantically involved with the same woman in the GTA for several months. Costa and the woman were frequently seen in the downtown entertainment district, which Vucovic also frequented.
