In Valjevo on 23.01.2025. journalists were physically prevented from reporting from the press conference of the councilor group “Svanuće” in the Assembly of the City of Valjevo, even though they were properly invited to this event.

In the end, at the insistence of the councilors, the journalists were able to enter the conference, which they were not previously allowed to do by private security, who at one point even physically pushed the Valjevo plus television cameraman away.
