Dušan Spasojević (Cyrillic: Душан Спасојевић; 10 July 1968 – 27 March 2003), known by the nicknames Duća and Šiptar[1][2] (a derogatory term for Albanians) was the head of one of the largest Serbian criminal groups on record, the Zemun clan.

The peak of this cartel's influence occurred from 2000 until 2003 when Spasojević was killed by Serbian police during a country-wide manhunt initiated after the assassination of Serbian Prime Minister Zoran Đinđić.
