The editor of the newspaper “Karakter” Nikola Krstić received several serious threats yesterday from the same person from an open account on the social network Twitter. Brutal threats and insults were uttered to the journalist, stating in several ways how the person will deal with the journalist Krstić and his like-minded people, especially emphasizing that he belongs in a “black plastic bag”. The threats list gruesome ways to hurt the journalist. At the same time, the journalist is invited to come forward and return the communication, and this is done through several comments in a series related to the writing of Nikola Krstić and the discussion about the genocide in Srebrenica.
