The editorial staff of Radio Rojc announced on the morning of February 23rd on their official Facebook page that someone had broken into their radio premises during the night. “Someone broke into our radio station last night, apparently they also broke into the studio because there is no program. Due to the police inspection, we cannot enter the premises. We hope to be on the air again soon,” they wrote.

After that, in the afternoon, they wrote that their equipment was stolen: “So, they ransacked us Mixer Rodecaster (new, we haven’t paid it off yet), without power, so it will probably end up in the trash, Behringer sound cards, seven laptops ( 5 HP: light green, white, silver, two black, one black Lenovo, one black Toshiba), two JBL speakers, Marantz recorders, station for wireless microphones, external hard disks, sticks… that is part of the equipment they took away from us. They damaged our microphones, AirLab and Allen and Heath mixers and a lot of other equipment, and that’s why we sound the way we do on the air right now”.
