On a Friday night (28-29 September), two men tried to open a window on the ground floor of Marić- Banje’s house but escaped when they noticed that someone from the house heard them. The perpetrators have written “Hijena” on the house, which is the same word that Marić Banje journalists have received several times via social networks due to her writing. On Saturday morning, September 29, police officers of the Second Police Station Split came to the journalist’s house and took statements.
