Provincial and republican deputies, as well as city councilors blocked are the entrance to the courthouse in Novi Sad, which no one can enter or leave, reported the portal 021.rs. However, the police reacted after issuing the warning, and pushed the crowd away from the door with shields. The action of the opposition MPs is over for today, but a new one has been announced for tomorrow.
The entrance to the building was blocked for almost six hours.
Opposition MPs demanded that the prosecutor's office do its job in the case of the fall of the canopy at the railway station, which killed 15 and seriously injured two people, as well as the release of citizens arrested after the protest in Novi Sad on November 5.
Sejdinoviฤ: The blockade action was hidden from the public, but the police already knew about it
According to the reporter of "Vremen", who was on the spot, about a hundred citizens gathered in front of the courthouse to support the gathered representatives of the opposition.
He states that the assembled opposition MPs kept this action a secret and that they informed the media about it before its very beginning, but that the police, regardless, knew about the blockade plan and that they were prepared and placed in the courthouse before it began. .

"The councilors blocked the common entrance to the building of the prosecution and the court." However, the police were ready in equipment to break up the demonstrations, although only representatives from the opposition knew about this blockade. The police apparently already knew about her in advance, and special forces in full gear to break up demonstrations were already in the court. They came out and pushed the deputies to the street. However, the MPs are still trying to get to the entrance and from time to time they are still pushing with the policemen," says Nedim Sejdinoviฤ, a journalist from "Vremena".
He adds that some of the police officers were very rude to the opposition councilors, so the vice-president of the Party of Freedom and Justice, Marinika Tepiฤ, accused them of kicking the protestors, while a part of the MUP members stood by and did not participate in the conflict.

Novakoviฤ: And tomorrow at 7 a new blockade
MP Borislav Novakoviฤ invited all parliamentarians, MPs and councilors from all over Serbia to come to Novi Sad tomorrow at 8:30 in front of the court in that city and express their dissatisfaction even more fiercely.
Little information about those arrested
Let us remind you that nine people are in the Novi Sad prison after the protest on November 5.
Novi Sad councilor Miลกa Baฤulov has been in custody since November 7 after the decision on house arrest was changed, as was the former president of the municipality of Inฤija Goran Jeลกiฤ who was sent to prison on the same day after the decision to defend him from freedom was revoked.
Today's action of the opposition was not announced to the police, and shortly after blocking the courthouse around 8 o'clock, the police also appeared.
They asked the participants of the blockade to take shelter and allow the court and the Prosecutor's Office to do their work, but deputy Borislav Novakoviฤ told them that they will not take shelter because the Prosecutor's Office and the courts are not doing their job, since no one has been taken into custody for 19 days since the tragedy, and they have been arrested those who stand for law and justice.
