Radar journalist Vuk Cvijić was expelled from the session of the Teaching and Scientific Council of the Faculty of Medicine in Belgrade.

As a journalist, Cvijić came to the public session of the teaching and scientific council of the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Belgrade. He entered the hall quite normally, and the security guard who was in front did not stop him.After some time, two security personnel entered and asked Cvijić to leave the hall. When he said that the session was public, they confirmed it and informed him that he could watch from the front, because the event was being filmed, and asked him to leave again.

The impression is that the persons conducting the elections at the Faculty of Medicine of the UB were bothered by the presence of journalists and that they apparently subsequently asked the security to expel the journalist, who normally entered the public session as a journalist.
