Supporters of the Serbian Progressive Party (SNS) attacked a Beta agency correspondent and a journalist from the Suboticke.rs portal yesterday in front of the premises of that party in Subotica.

As Beta’s correspondent reported, men dressed in black forbade female journalists to photograph the rally that was taking place in front of the SNS premises.

One of the attackers crumpled the accreditation that Beta’s reporter was wearing around her neck, and tried to take away her colleague’s phone.

Soon the police came and prevented a major incident. The case was subsequently reported to the police.
