Studentski pokret alleges election voter intimidation in Serbia

The Studentski pokret has issued a statement alleging that the outgoing regime used pressure, threats, and bribery to influence voters, particularly targeting the Roma community during the election process.

The group reported testimonies of citizens being offered money, promised social assistance, or employment in exchange for votes, as well as threats to withhold essential services. They expressed concern that the economic and social vulnerability of the Roma community is being exploited as a tool for political control.

Furthermore, the movement highlighted potential abuses of power by Roma coordinators, local community presidents, and social work center employees. They warned that personal data and social status information may have been misused to exert political pressure on vulnerable populations.
