Vučić's weapon for mass intimidation and overthrowing the constitutional order

Why were verbal delinquents - analysts, experts and journalists - targeted by the regime, in addition to students? How did the Higher Public Prosecutor's Office in its announcement make the verdict that the students shot themselves with a sound cannon?

How was the media bomb activated in the regime media with pre-prepared lists of people who participated in the "conspiracy" and who should be killed?
