Today: Novica Antic arrested

Former president of the Military Union of Serbia Novica Antic was arrested today by members of the Criminal Police Administration on suspicion of having committed the criminal offense of causing panic and disorder through social networks.

This information was confirmed for "Danas" by his brother Vaso Antić. He said that after the search of the family home in Kragujevac, he will be taken to Belgrade.

Novica Antić's brother did not know the exact reason for the arrest, and he thinks it is another attempt at intimidation and repression by the regime.

Novica Antić was last arrested on the eve of the Vidovdan student protest last year, when he was charged with the criminal offense of preparing an act against the constitutional order and security of Serbia.
