When journalist Milan Jankovic wanted to make a picture at the meeting of the local assembly, assistant of the president of municipality Mikan Mirosavic told him “not to photograph him and that he will break everything to him”. Jankovic told to Journalists Association of Serbia: “After more than an hour from this threat, I get out from the hall. I walked past Mikan and walked out. I heard in the lobby that he was following me. I didn’t stop, neither turn around, I continued to the exit. Except he kept insulting me, he threatened to find me and kill me”.
