Threats against Serbian journalist Brankica Stanković

Overview

The Journalists Association of Serbia (UNS) condemned threatening and sexist chanting directed at Insider editor Brankica Stanković during a basketball game at the Belgrade Arena. The UNS noted that Stanković has been a target of hooligan groups for 17 years due to her investigative work and called for the identification of the perpetrators using arena surveillance.

Following these developments, the Third Basic Public Prosecutor's Office in Belgrade ordered the detention of two individuals, identified as D. M. and R. R., and issued warrants for three others, S. S., O. I., and A. N. The suspects are accused of endangering Stanković's security by allegedly chanting insulting and threatening songs during a match held on June 6, 2023.

In a recent update, Belgrade prosecutors confirmed that arrest warrants have been issued for the five individuals suspected of threatening Stanković's safety during the Partizan versus Cedevita Olimpija game. While D. M. and R. R. remain in detention, police continue to search for S. S., O. I., and A. N.
