COLUMN, KOVAČEVIĆ: Who really killed Aleksandar Nešović Bajo?

For days now, I have been reading, watching, and listening to everything published about the murder of Aleksandar Nešović Bajo in the Belgrade restaurant “27,” and I must admit that the entire construct built around this crime so far by the joint forces of the police and the information media (not to call them media) makes absolutely no sense to me…

Namely, sound logic—after everything I have seen, heard, and read, provided of course that certain information from the investigation that appeared in public is credible—forces me to conclude that the roles have been reversed and that the killer of the prominent Keka clan member is not the one everyone is pointing their finger at…

Well, let’s start from the beginning…

According to the official scenario currently being pushed on us by state authorities through media controlled in one way or another, Police Chief Veselin Milić is a witness, and most likely an accomplice to the crime, while the killer is Saša Vuković Boske, a former police officer and businessman whose rise coincides with Vučić’s coming to power, and who allegedly had unsettled accounts with Nešović.

Here is why that story doesn’t hold water…

What we know for sure (although nothing is sure in Serbia anymore) is that on the night in question, namely May 12, the murdered Nešović turned his car around in front of restaurant “27” and drove away because he saw suspicious vehicles in the parking lot.

According to allegations from the investigation, Boske called Nešović on the phone at that moment, after which Nešović returned, so it can be reasonably assumed that the content and meaning of their conversation was for Boske to convince him to return and that everything would be fine.

Which the latter, as we know, believed, and in the end paid for that wrong assessment with his life.

This raises the question: Why was Boske the one to call Nešović to convince him to return to the restaurant if the two of them were in conflict?

In such a situation, it is to be expected that someone close to you, someone you trust, calls you, and the fact that Boske was a co-owner of a company with Nešović’s son Stefan also supports the idea that these two were close.

And the second, even more illogical thing…

Why would Nešović, if he had already been called by phone, be surprised by Boske’s presence (?!) upon entering the restaurant and utter the famous sentence that the investigation allegedly uncovered:

“Why didn’t you tell me this pu..y was here?”

Now, bearing in mind the connection of all the mentioned actors with the state leadership, as well as the deep connections between the police and organized crime groups, which this case has exposed more than any other so far, it is hard to believe that the investigation will be independent and yield relevant results, especially that we will ever find out who actually killed Aleksandar Nešović Bajo.

In a situation where the police cannot find a body hidden by its own members for days (human remains were found today in a barrel near Inđija), it is hard to expect that those same police officers will surprise us in the further course with something over which a thick and dark cloud of doubt will not hang from the start.

And I highly doubt that we will hear from their mouths what currently seems like a very logical conclusion—that Saša Vuković Boske was almost certainly bait, perhaps an accomplice, but hardly the killer, or more precisely, that he pulled the trigger that fateful night in the restaurant on Senjak.

Additional doubt on the investigation so far is cast by the unbelievable story according to which Boske’s wife brought the gun from home, then gave it to an accomplice, who then forwarded it to him…

Why would Saša Vuković do that when he could have easily carried the gun himself, without unnecessary complications and involving other people?

That, along with the other details, sounds like a fairy tale for the gullible invented on the spot by the actors of this event, and to which Saša Vuković Boske agreed for reasons known only to him, in order to protect someone who is above him in the criminal-cop hierarchy.

All in all, however this state-police-mafia farce ends, one thing is certain…

STUDENTS WIN!
