The physical and verbal attack by the head of the Public Relations Department of the City of Bijeljina, Predrag Lopandić, on BN TV journalist Ljiljana Faladžić-Jekić took place during the session of the Crisis Staff for Emergency Situations of the City of Bijeljina. Lopandić did not allow the journalist to attend the session and, with swearing and pushing, drove her out of the hall, although the head of the Crisis Staff confirmed a few days earlier that the sessions were open to the public.
