They stated that “there is no evidence” of the attack on the dean of the Faculty of Physical Education and Sport, Patrik Drid, which is why they demanded Petrović’s immediate release.
“This is not just a fight for Veljko, but for the right of every citizen not to be detained without grounds,” it was stated in the call for today’s protest.
