A threat was sent to the journalist and professor of the Faculty of Philosophy in Novi Sad, in the form of a letter that arrived at the address of the faculty, and which was signed with “Greetings from Ratko Mladić”.

In the threatening letter, it is stated, among other things, that “Ustasha is filled with an incurable hatred that you are the one you first nursed” and “sick in the brain”,

“And you Ustasha, stop barking, pack your bags and go to your Ustasha NDH Croatia-your beautiful country, and spread wisdom there, so that I eat everything around you. Are you Ustasha thinking that the time will come soon for you to answer for all the misdeeds-evil you are doing to the Serbian people!? And now shut that Ustasha mouth so it won’t be too late!”, the letter notes, and at the end states “Greetings from RATKO MLADIC”.
