History
Prior to the Yugoslav Wars, the population of the village was 89% Croat. [3] During the Yugoslav Wars and particularly as a spillover from the Croatian War of Independence local Croat community in Kukujevci was exposed to harassment and persecution by Serbian nationalists leading to community's expulsion from the village. [4] As a consequence of the war demographic structure of the village is today almost entirely different with 90% of population being ethnic Serbs, mostly Serb refugees who left after the collapse of the self-proclaimed SAO Western Slavonia or from other parts of Croatia. [5] The new Serbian population has sought to rename the village to Lazarevo. [6]
