The Prosecutor's Office did not issue an order for this hearing. Stefanović is glad that they are falling for lies that he has some kind of protection. Although the police are urged to do everything according to the order of the Higher Public Prosecutor's Office, the prosecutor's office directs them to the MUP for more information.
The former Minister of Police, the current Minister of Defense, Nebojša Stefanović and the former Police State Secretary of Serbia, Dijana Hrkalović, were invited to the Internal Control Sector of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Serbia for an informational interview.

After the police press release, Minister Stefanović announced on his Twitter profile that he will be interviewed by the police tomorrow:
"Tomorrow, I will help our state authorities shed light on the events that have been talked about in public and finally get to the truth. I am glad that the lies about how I have some kind of protection, which are spread by those who are afraid of justice, are falling into the water," said Stefanović.
