EFJ condemns verbal assault on N1 reporter by Belgrade mayor

The European Federation of Journalists (EFJ) on Friday condemned Belgrade Mayor Aleksandar Sapic’s verbal assault on N1 reporter Miodrag Sovilj.

 

“We strongly condemn the verbal abuse of N1 journalist Miodrag Sovilj by Belgrade Mayor Sapić at the press conference. The mayor not only discredited Sovilj’s reporting but dangerously fueled hatred against N1 journalists, who face daily threats,” an X post said.

 

The Mapping Media Freedom portal listed the incident as an attack intended to discredit N1 and Sovilj.
