An unknown person sent to the president of the IJAS, Slavisa Lekic threatening message via Facebook. The message had the following content: “I fuck all of yours – dead or alive, you other Serbian scumbag! I fuck Bojana, who stopped your time, you sell-out. In the end – I fuck your bosses your bigheaded freak!” In October last year, the same person sent Lekic messages with similar content.
‘Other Serbians’ is a pejorative term for Serbian intellectuals who established communication with Croatian intellectuals during the war in the nineties. It is used by right wing groups to insult those who don’t share their values.
