Aleksandar Vučić strives to bring everything that is not yet under his control. It was the turn of the Serbian Armed Forces and the Prosecutor's Office for Organized Crime. The government closes ranks in order not to suppress the rebellion in society
The progressive regime "toughed" a lot to rein in citizens and prevent civil servants from doing their job professionally. It started at the very beginning of the SNS rule, with public enterprises and local self-governments, continued with the media led by the Public Service, the National Bank of Serbia and the judiciary and the Higher Public Prosecutor's Office, and the last to attack is the Prosecutor's Office for Organized Crime.
Aleksandar Vučić, through the Serbian Progressive Party, commands the Government of the Republic of Serbia and AP Vojvodina from the position of President. His will is carried out vertically.
The strategy of penetrating the institutions is always similar - to introduce their own "verified" people, who will work for the regime's cause at any cost, to drive away people with integrity. Autocracy is sliding more and more quickly into open dictatorship.
TOK under lock and key and surveillance
The biggest stone in the regime's boots at the moment is the Prosecutor's Office for Organized Crime, because the clues in the case of the fall of the canopy and the General Staff lead to the top of the government. That is why the Serbian Progressive Party has prepared new legal regulations to put this institution under control.
Chairman of the Committee on Justice Ugljesa Mrdic he announced changes to the law "which would lead to the abolition of TOK" and this was allegedly supported by the Minister of Justice Nenad Vujić. Mrdić proposed that TOK be under the authority of VJT in Belgrade.
Since the beginning of the pre-investigation procedure in the cases "Canopy" and "General Staff"and when evidence was collected that some ministers "abused their position to the detriment of all citizens", media targeting began, and "then the obstruction of the prosecution's actions". Organized Crime Prosecutor's Office (TOK) announced on November 25 that the prosecutors were "exposed to continuous pressure" from the President of Serbia, as well as other representatives of the authorities and certain media in Serbia.
It is the second such announcement in less than a month. The Prosecutor's Office for Organized Crime stated at the beginning of November that the President of Serbia "made shameless claims that disparage and criminalize TOK public prosecutors" and emphasized that this "directly obstructs justice." The prosecution reacted then, because it Aleksandar Vučić on a television station with a national frequency, speaking about the General Staff case, he said that the majority of prosecutors in Serbia are a "corrupt gang" and that TOK prosecutors are "criminals".
Law on the Supreme Commander
Amendments to the Law on the Serbian Armed Forces legitimize Aleksandar Vučić as commander-in-chief, and "Ćacilenda" thus gets its outpost in the army. it already said "Time".
In this way, Vučić is formalizing the command of the Serbian Army, which he has been doing illegally until now, but now he is putting it on paper. In translation, if the "supreme" or one of his party colleagues orders that "Ćaciland" be reassigned to the Serbian Army, it will be done.
Especially since the condition for performing this position is only completed elementary school.
That evening, the media reported, he himself was with Kričko, when students and citizens were arrested near the Government of the Republic of Serbia.
Also this summer, he was filmed multiple times using excessive force on students during detention. Žmirić has a tattoo of a rose on his neck, which has always shown loyalty Milorad Ulemek Legija, who is serving a sentence of 40 years in prison for the assassination of Zoran Djindjic, the first democratically elected Prime Minister of Serbia.
The JZO itself was created during the progressive influx into the MUP. Members of this unit come into the public spotlight with the strengthening of citizen and student protests. Where the progressive beaters are, they are there too. Their commander Marko Kricak, in his previous life a car sales clerk, is a man trusted by Bata Gašić.
Đorđe Prelić, one of the leaders of the former Partizan fan group Alcatraz, convicted for the murder of French fan Brice Taton, was hired for work at the EXPO, discovered by CINS.
Prelić's comment on this "job" is particularly interesting, because he replied that he is "just chewing gum in the market" and added that "I wouldn't name anyone, since that text probably won't be good for the government (...) so it's certainly not in their favor."
As an illustrative example of potentially rigged deals around the EXPO exhibition is the tender in which, a month after its foundation, the firm "Moon Design" got a job worth 28.600 euros.
Namely, the building that will house the new headquarters of EXPO 2027 will receive a sign with the company's name. The board will be made by "Moon Design", and the value of this purchase is 3.346.000 dinars.
NBS under control
After the SNS came to power, the law was changed according to which the governor of the NBS can be a political figure, so she sat in that chair Jorgovanka Tabakovic.
A long-time member of the radical parliament of Aleksandar Vučić, she does not consider it a shame for the NBS to be an officially independent institution, as it is obliged to do by law, and at the same time listen to Vučić's orders and suggestions.
"Lilac, how are things, and why wouldn't you buy some gold abroad (asked Vučić)? I am the governor, but the decision on such an investment is not mine, no matter how much I have (that) position in the Constitution. Such decisions are made in cooperation and with the support of the President of the State and in agreement with the Government of Serbia." reported by Tabakovic in one show, a conversation with the president about the purchase of gold.

At the moment when the institutions of the Republic are destroyed, when Vučić's octopus is still alive, when people are disgusted by the injustice and the stench left behind by the Essenes regime, we have, as Machiavelli said, only civic virtue as the fuel with which we can return to the beginning
The four independent members of REM are an example of perseverance and civic responsibility. Rodoljub Šabić even, upon leaving the premises of REM, after the sentencing of the Informer, experienced that the Essenes insulted him, hit him with their hands and feet. But that too will soon be over
