International Master Zdenko Krnic born 2nd October 1947 has died at the age of 62 on July 23rd 2010. He was the Editor in Chief of Chess Informant.

He suffered injuries from a traffic accident whilst traveling home from his work on July 16th 2010.

This is very sad news. On a personal note I actually was fortunate to play him in the Donner Memorial Journalist's Tournament of 1996 when he tied for first with Malcolm Pein.
