The Association of Journalists of Serbia (UNS) and the Independent Association of Journalists of Serbia (NUNS) condemned the attack on the property of N1 television journalist Lee Apro, whose mobile phone was ripped from her hand by a student of the Faculty of Technical Sciences in Novi Sad while she was reporting from the blockade of the Faculty of Technical Sciences in Novi Sad.
From the UNS, they request that the prosecutor's office investigate the case of violence and initiate proceedings against the person responsible in order to send an unequivocal message that violence against journalists is punishable and inadmissible.
Lea Apro told UNS that while she was reporting from the blockade, the students noticed that a young man was filming her.
"I approached him and asked why he was filming me and asked him to introduce himself." He tried to leave and was hiding his face from the camera. I also asked him why, as the students told me, he was against blocking the faculty. He didn't answer. "I followed him, only for him to snatch the phone from my hand at the moment I managed to take a picture of his face," Apro said.
She added that in the meantime she found out the young man's name, as well as the fact that he is a student at the Faculty of Technical Sciences.
"After he took my phone, I asked for it back, but he passed it to another person. In the end, I managed to take it over, but then five young men gathered around our team with questions about what we were looking for here and how much we planned to film. They were filming us all the time, saying that this is not a political rally, to which I replied that I am a journalist and doing my job," Apro told the FoNet agency.
NUNS strongly condemned the attack
On the occasion of the attack on Leo Apro, the Independent Association of Journalists of Serbia also announced, reports N1.
"Over the last few days, attacks and threats against journalists have become more frequent because of the performance of their work," they said in the statement.
