Police raid Provincial PIO Fund in Novi Sad
Police entered the building of the Provincial Pension and Disability Insurance Fund (PIO) in Novi Sad during the afternoon. According to reports, officers and forensic teams remained in the building after employees were briefly detained in the lobby.
Unconfirmed reports suggest that computers, documents, and camera footage were seized. There are allegations that the facility may have been used as a political call center for the SNS party to collect votes. Some sources claim that certain employees were allegedly required to work in this capacity and had been absent from their regular duties for over a month.
This action follows recent calls from a labor union for the dismissal of the Fund's director, Milan Šućak. The union has accused Šućak of political activism within the Fund, discriminatory treatment of employees based on union membership, and allegedly forcing staff to attend political rallies. The police and prosecution have not issued an official statement regarding the raid.
