Sources: 14. Developments: 2. Kosovo police have engaged in recent actions involving the restriction of cultural and religious activities. In late July, Serbian singer Milan Vasić was summoned for an informational interview prior to a performance at the Monastery of the Holy Archangels. Police provided Vasić with a written list of prohibited content, stating he could not perform songs mentioning Metohija or using national symbols in a negative context. Vasić reported, “they told me I may not sing any song that mentions Metohija,” and subsequently adjusted his repertoire for the event, which proceeded without incident despite a visible police presence. In mid-August, authorities detained Elvedin Peziq, a Bosnian Islamic preacher, in Vitomirica near Peja. The detention occurred ahead of a book promotion event. Police questioned Peziq regarding whether he possessed permission from the Islamic Community of Kosovo to hold the activity. Following the initial detention, Peziq was transferred to a station in Pristina for identity verification and investigation. ## Timeline ### 2026-08-13: Elvedin Peziq detained by Kosovo Police Kosovo Police detained Bosnian Islamic preacher Elvedin Peziq in Vitomirica ahead of a book promotion event, citing identity verification and questions regarding religious activity permits. 14 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/kosovo-police-detain-bosnian-preacher-elvedin-peziq ### 2026-07-29: Serbian Singer Milan Vasić Restricted from Singing About Metohija by Kosovo Police Milan Vasić was interrogated by Kosovo police before a Prizren monastery concert, warned not to sing about Metohija, complied, and the event ran without incident. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/serbian-singer-milan-vasi-restricted-from-singing-about-metohija-by-kosovo-police --- Cite as: Kosovo police restrictions on cultural and religious figures.
