Dolanc was chief of the State Security Administration ( UDBA) and a close associate of President Josip Broz Tito. In his youth, Ražnatović was a ward of his father's friend, the Slovenian politician and Federal Minister of the Interior, Stane Dolanc. During this time he organized his own gang in the prison. In 1969 he was arrested by French police and deported home, where he was sentenced to three years at the detention center in Valjevo for several burglaries. His father then sent him to the seaside town of Kotor ( SR Montenegro) in order to join the Yugoslav Navy, but young Ražnatović had other plans (ending up in Paris at the age of fifteen). Teenaged Ražnatović was arrested for the first time in 1966 for snatching women's purses around Tašmajdan Park, spending a year at a juvenile detention center not far from Belgrade. Ražnatović's parents eventually divorced during his teenage years. Due to the highly demanding and significant positions of his parents, there appeared to be very little time in which a bond was able to be established between parents and children. In his youth, Ražnatović aspired to become a pilot as his father had been. In a 1991 interview he recalled: "He didn't really hit me in a classical sense, he'd basically grab me and slam me against the floor."
He grew up with three older sisters in a strict, militaristic patriarchal household with regular physical abuse from his father. Infant Željko spent part of his childhood in Zagreb ( SR Croatia) and Pančevo ( SR Serbia), before his father's job eventually took the family to the Yugoslav capital of Belgrade (SR Serbia), which is considered his hometown. Veljko was stationed in Slovenian Styria at the time when his fourth child Željko was born. Later on, Veljko served as a decorated officer in the SFR-Yugoslav Air Force, being highly ranked for his notable involvement in World War II. His father Veljko, was born in Rijeka Crnojevića near Cetinje, and had taken part in the Partisan liberation of Priština ( Kosovo) during World War II. Željko Ražnatović was born in Brežice, a small border town in Lower Styria, PR Slovenia, FPR Yugoslavia.
