Four attacks on journalists in two days: Mladen Savatović, a journalist from N1, was verbally attacked twice in Belgrade, in Kragujevac, a reporter from the Glas Šumadije portal, Aleksandar Kostić, and in Bečej, journalist Kristina Demeter was also attacked.
Sorting attacks on journalists, in Belgrade, Kragujevac, and Bečej happened today (October 3), and yesterday there was another one.
Mladen Savatović, a journalist from N1, was threatened for the second time during his work assignment in the last two days.
While he was filming a building suspected of being used for registration of phantom voters in Ulica Kraljevića Marka on Savski Venec in Belgrade, Savatović was approached by two elderly men. One of them tried to forbid Savatović and his cameraman from filming the object, even though he was told that it was a public area. He then tried to move the camera, and started physically attacking him, after which the N1 team called the police.
The man introduced himself as a doorman, who was later found to be the father of Vladimir Mandić, the owner of the mentioned building, a former handball player and a businessman close to the Serbian Progressive Party.
The police did not appear at the scene.
Yesterday, while performing a journalistic task, an unknown man threatened Savatović with physical violence on Nikola Pašić Square, telling him that next time he would "break his head" and that he should "be careful". That case was reported to the competent prosecutor's office.
In Kragujevac, also on Saturday, the reporter of the portal Glas Šumadije Aleksandra Kostić was verbally attacked and threatened by a middle-aged man while she was reporting from a gathering of supporters of the Serbian Progressive Party before going to the pre-election rally of the list "Aleksandar Vučić - Serbia wins" in the Belgrade Arena.
While she was live in the broadcast, a man threw her from behind in a rude tone: "Don't let me throw that phone at you on the bus," the portal announced on Instagram. The reporter of Glas Šumadija wore a visible identification card around her neck all the time, on which the PRESS mark was clearly displayed, which the man's comment proves, the portal added.
On the same day in Bečej, journalist Kristina Demeter was also attacked while filming a gathering of supporters of the Serbian Progressive Party. According to information provided to NUNS, a man employed in a local public company took her phone and refused to return it, demanding that she delete the recorded material.
After Demeter refused, the man placed the phone on a tree branch, from where the journalist managed to retrieve it with the help of police officers. The police were informed about the incident, as was the prosecutor on duty, and the journalist will report the case to the competent authorities.
