NGO activist Mitar Radonjic filed a criminal complaint against Pobjeda journalist Duško Mihailović for the criminal offense of persecution.

As Pobjeda published, the reason for the criminal complaint is Mihailovic’s articles that were published in March of last year, in which Mihailovic “pointed to a systemic scam in which the state finances a convicted violent person in order to help victims of violence.” Radonjic is the founder of over 30 NGOs.

Pobjeda announced that this case is not the first attempt by Radonjic to put pressure on Pobjeda journalists.
