In 1862, Montengrin forces attacked the Albanian village of Tuđemil (Tugemile, Tugjemile or Tuxhemil) in Antivari. In an article from 1862, published in the “Neue Europa”, we can read that Todor Kadic (Cadich) planned the murder of the Montenegrin prince. However, prior to this, he was expelled by the Austrians and escorted to the Albanian border near Tivari. He then met with the “Turk Ali Sulevich” (Alb. Ali Sulja or Alit Sule) in the village of Tuxhemil. Montenegins then attacked the village and Kadic resisted with his compatriots.

“[…] By order of the governor’s office, However, he (Kadic) was expelled from the Austrian states for reasons unknown and escorted to the Turkish-Albanian border on June 9th by the gendarmerie. Cadich then sought accommodation in several villages near Antivari.

He found lodging with the Turk Ali Sulevich in Tugemile and fought alongside the inhabitants of Tugemile against his compatriots, the Montenegrins, who were attacking the town. However, he was not allowed to stay there long either. The lack of a passport or other official identification prevented him from entering the Turkish cities.

He could not earn his living in the villages, so he decided to try his luck once more in Cattaro. He told his host, the Turk Ali Sulevich, that he would ask Georg Petrovich, who lived in Zara, to intercede for him so that he would be allowed to stay in the Austrian lands or be issued a passport to Bosnia. Cadich left Tugemile on August 9th and spent the night of August 10th to 11th in Spizza.”
