Newsmax Adria director and journalist Slobodan Georgiev received verbal threats on the social network Twitter.

From the account “LOžač @ piXlHRunFEL33” Georgiev was threatened in the following way: “Every day you are getting closer to the scales … You will not be on the central stage like a wolf, a dilas, a dačić and other brothers, but you will be …”.

In the next tweet, Georgiev forwarded and marked the Twitter account of the Minister of the Interior, Nebojsa Stefanović, by which he informed the police representatives about the threat.

The case is still on-going.
