RAF/USAAF claims over Yugoslavia between 17 and 21 october 1944

I'm searching who and at wich date shot down a Fi167 over Yugoslavia. This AC was a former Croat aircraft that defected to partisans and was at the time of its shooting down carrying a general, that was killed.

Problem is that the date of the AC loss is given as the 17th, while all sources agree that the general died on the 21st. It is fairly possible he died of his wounds but a possible date confusion is also a possibility.

RAF officialy recognized the error so the kill may actually be not listed in "kill lists".

Thanks in advance

Laurent
