On March 27, journalist Gordana Momčilović Ilić was standing next to her bicycle on the street when a car stopped in the parking space for disabled people and a woman got out and told the journalist “if I mention her brother one more time he will kill me.”

She started receiving messages on her personal Instagram about how nice it is to have a place where you drink good coffee.

The journalist reported the case to the police.
