Born in Ilidža, a suburb of Sarajevo in Austria-Hungary (present day Bosnia and Herzegovina) on 27 November 1899, Prica became interested in politics while studying mathematics and physics at the University of Zagreb.[1] From 1921 until 1923, Prica lived in Vienna, where he finished his studies and worked in the Bureau of the Communist Balkan Federation.After his release in 1937, Prica became one of the leading members of the newly formed League of Communists of Croatia.In March 1941, a few days before the Axis invasion of Yugoslavia, he was arrested together with a large number of Croatian left-wing intellectuals and was sent to Kerestinec camp, where Prica was handed over to the Ustaše authorities a few weeks later.He was shot as a retaliation for Partisan activity together with Zvonimir Richtmann, Božidar Adžija and Otokar Keršovani.
