About Jure Franceti
- Jure Francetic (3 July 1912 – 27/28 December 1942) was a Croatian Ustaša Commissioner for the Bosnia and Herzegovina regions of the Independent State of Croatia (NDH) during World War II, and commander of the 1st Ustaše Regiment of the Ustaše Militia, later known as the Black Legion.
- In both roles he was responsible for the massacre of Bosnian Serbs and Jews.
- A member of Ante Pavelic's inner circle, he was considered by many Ustaše as a possible successor to Pavelic as Poglavnik (leader) of the NDH.
- He died of wounds inflicted when he was captured by Partisans near Slunj in the Kordun region when his aircraft crash-landed there in late December 1942.
