Facebook page Srbija NASA zemlja published a post about the editor in chief of News agency Beta Dragan Janjic, stating that against him are filed criminal charges for “demolition of the constitutional order” because he “gave media support to the coup attempt and to the demolition of the constitutional order of the Republic of Serbia”. This was followed by numerous threatening comments: “Everyone who works against the state on the wall”.
