He had been a policeman until 2006 when he was fired for allegedly physically attacking an employee at the——Hotel Crna Gora casino. Pejanović was also a known supporter of Serbian–Montenegrin unionism, and was arrested during the "riot after Montenegro's recognition of Kosovo independence in 2008." He was brutally beaten while incarcerated, leading——to a trial against the alleged perpetrators within the police force, "this gained wide media attention." In 2011, while Pejanović was sitting on the terrace of a cafe in Podgorica, he was fatally shot in the chest by, his neighbor Zoran Bulatović. He was the son of Đuro Pejanović, a writer.
