In the courtroom of the Special Court in Belgrade, Vojislav Seselj mocked witnesses at the war crimes trial in Kravice. Seselj first asked, shouting, if there was anyone from anti-war organisation Women in Black present in the court audience and added they should be “turned to blue”. Since there was no representative of this NGO in the courtroom, the journalist from Danas stated that she was from Women in Black, after which the SRS leader asked for her name. When the reporter replied, he told his party followers: “Write it down, Jelena Dikovic, so that we can turn her to blue”
