Student Stefan Tomić was ordered to be detained for up to 48 hours due to the suspicion that he committed the criminal act of calling for a violent change of the constitutional order, according to the statement of the Higher Public Prosecutor's Office in Belgrade.
The higher public prosecutor's office claims that student Stefan Tomić, who has been detained since Tuesday, June 24, in the evening, called for violent incursions and the blockade of a number of state institutions and media via the Vocap mobile application.
"On the group called 'RG for Communication', which has 16 members and whose purpose is to exchange information and plan protests in the Republic of Serbia, he published photos with handwritten text stating that, on the occasion of the upcoming protest scheduled for June 28 in Belgrade, on Vidovdan, there should be a violent incursion and then a blockade of state institutions," added VJT and published the alleged list of those institutions.
The student allegedly called for a blockade of the Republic Election Commission, the Constitutional Court, the Higher Public Prosecutor's Office in Belgrade, the building of Radio Television of Serbia, as well as the private media companies "Pink" and "Informer", all with the intention of forcefully changing the constitutional arrangement of the Republic of Serbia and overthrowing the highest authorities and their representatives, the court statement added.
Student of the Faculty of Physics, Stefan Tomić he has been detained since June 24 in the Department for Terrorism of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Serbia, which is located in the Palace of Serbia, but was moved during the night. He is accused of calling for the violent overthrow of the constitutional order.
This student of the Faculty of Physics, a native of Negotin, was detained together with a colleague, but she was released, while Tomić is in custody awaiting a hearing with the prosecutor.
"The police said that he is being charged with terrorism and subversion of state order because he allegedly called for the dismissal of high-ranking state officials on social networks," added Borojević. "Stefan stuck to peaceful protests and student demands and I'm sure he didn't post calls for violence."
Stefan was transferred at three in the morning
BAPUSS Academy student Nikola Lončarević told Nova that the last information they have is that "at 3 o'clock in the morning (June 25) they said they had no conditions to keep Stefan and that they transferred him somewhere."
"We don't know where he was taken, he is being tried for terrorism, his parents don't know, the lawyer doesn't know, it all violates his human rights. He was kidnapped by two people in civilian clothes, who introduced themselves as policemen, they didn't show identification to Stefan and the female colleague who was with him, they let the female colleague go, and Stefan was forced into the car," he says.
Today, he says, there will be no gathering in front of the Palace of Serbia.
"The parents asked for it. We are still with Stefan, we will come to support him, we are waiting for the trial, we are waiting for further information," he says.
Apprehension
Physics students in the blockade announced that on June 24, around 17 p.m., two men, whom they assumed were plainclothes policemen, approached a student of Physics and a female student of the Faculty of Philology not far from the intersection of Nemanjina and Kneza Miloš Street in Belgrade, where professors and students are organizing the blockade.
After the conversation, the student was released, while the student of the Faculty of Physics was taken away by car. Initially, it was not known to which police station he was taken.
"They asked us for personal documents. We did not have any documents with us at the time. We told them that we had them at the intersection, but they said that it was not valid. It looked like they wanted to write us a ticket," the student told N1.
As she stated, the unknown men did not introduce themselves, but asked them who they were and where they were from.
"When I said that I was from Belgrade, and my colleague was from Negotin, then they began to question him more. Are his parents there, what are his parents doing. We were confused, they cooperated with them. They told him to get in the car and he cooperated with them, they told me that I don't have to get in the car," she said.
The President of Serbia, Aleksandar Vučić, has repeatedly threatened that the "blockaders" will bear the consequences of their "illegal" actions.
