Đuro Vilović (Serbian Cyrillic: Ђуро Виловић; 11 December 1889 – 22 December 1958) was a Yugoslav publicist, one of the most widely read and controversial writers of Croatian interwar literature and a member of the Chetniks.[1][2]
Initially, a Croatian nationalist and a Roman Catholic priest, Vilović left the Roman Catholic church, joining a Serbian nationalist Chetnik movement during World War II and becoming a close ally of Draža Mihailović, for which he was sentenced to 7 years in prison at the Belgrade Process in 1946 by the new communist regime. He died on 22 December 1958 in Bjelovar.[1][2]
