With several commemorative gatherings on Wednesday, October 1, eleven months will be marked since the fatal fall of the canopy of the Railway Station in Novi Sad.
At 11:52 a.m., citizens' groups called for citizens to gather at the railway station in Novi Sad.
"There is no force or power that can bring 16 murdered souls back under the canopy. But also, there is no force that can stop us from seeking justice for them. 'Your hands are bloody' - we will repeat to you until the last culprit is named, brought to justice and locked behind the prison doors. Novi Sad will not be silent. For them. For us. For justice," the call states.
The students in the blockade of the faculty in Novi Sad have announced a commemorative gathering in the evening, and the gathering will start at 6:30 pm on the campus of the University.
"It's been 11 months since the crime. Those responsible still haven't answered," the students said in the call.
The graduates of the "Svetozar Marković" and "Isidora Sekulić" high schools and the graduates of the "Svetozar Miletić" High School of Economics will mark 11 months since the fall of the canopy at 11:52 a.m. on Freedom Square.
"Because we didn't get the truth. Because we didn't get justice. Because we didn't get responsibility. That's exactly why - we remember!", said the graduates.
The students of Jovina Gymnasium announced that they will be in front of the Mechanical, Chemical and Traffic School at 11:52.
The students in the blockade published an invitation on social networks stating that the beginning of the rally that will mark 11 months since the unprecedented tragedy in Belgrade is at 5:30 p.m.
According to the map published by them, the beginning of the rally is in front of the Belgrade Center Railway Station, more popularly called Prokop, from where a walk to the Railway Station in New Belgrade is planned. It is a commemorative walk and that is why the students are sending a message to those coming to the rally to leave their whistles at home.
An informal group of students from the University of that city announced a meeting in Niš for Wednesday. They call their protest "334 days". The gathering in Niš was announced for 6:30 p.m. at two locations, at the roundabout near the "Gricko" bakery and at the intersection near the office. The two protest columns will then go and meet at the premises of the Serbian Progressive Party (SNS) in Vojvode Mišića Street.
The commemoration of 11 months since the fall of the canopy in Novi Sad will also be held in Loznica at 7 p.m. As announced on social networks, the tribute will be held in front of the "Vuk Karadžić" Gymnasium in Loznica at 19:00.
