Bratislav Gašić: Minister for kneeling in the body for gender equality

"Bata Santos" will be a member of the Government of Serbia's Coordinating Body for Gender Equality, a man who, as Minister of Defense, publicly said in 2015 that he "likes female journalists who kneel easily". That cost him a ministerial post, but that's why he became the head of the BIA, only to return to the government in style as the minister of internal affairs.

A man who knows how to keep secrets

The Crik Research Center announced that in one of the conversations that the police eavesdropped on, a member of the criminal group Zoran Jotić Jotka from Kruševla stated that Jotić had no reason to be afraid because "Gašić is at his place", which is a slang term for someone who is on someone's payroll. The head of the BIA refused to answer the journalist's question about whether and what kind of relationship he has with this Kruševac mobster. However, this is not the first time that Gašić's name is next to Jotka's. Allegedly, in the nineties, Jotka's team tried to extort Gašić. Whether he didn't want to pay the racket or didn't pay enough, a fire was just started under his jeep. Gašić was questioned before the Special Court for Organized Crime regarding the incident, but then he stated that he did not know about the existence of the "famous" Jotka criminal group. He did not even recognize the person accused of setting the car on fire
