You can imagine the panic that gripped me when I saw my laptop was gone,&#8221; Nemanja told Euronews Serbia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A dispatcher at a transport company, who had worked in Berlin for years and now performs his job from Belgrade, wasn&#8217;t sure about the procedure for lost items in public transport. So, he said, he called GSP officials and waited at the terminal, hoping to find it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I thought there was no chance, because that bus goes from Petlovo Brdo to Zeleni Venac, and who knows who gets on and off. I waited at the last stop and asked every driver if anyone had reported anything. I couldn&#8217;t believe it when I saw it,&#8221; the interviewee said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It turned out that the forgotten laptop had been on the bus the entire time. The driver found it during a routine check of the seats after passengers had exited the vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I gave him a tip, but I wanted to give him more, I just didn&#8217;t have more cash on me at the time. The laptop is very important to me. I&#8217;d say I&#8217;d rather have left my head. It has all my personal information, as well as company data, everything related to distributors and banks we cooperate with \u2013 the most valuable information,&#8221; Nemanja explained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He has nothing but praise for the honest Sri Lankan driver, whose photo he posted out of gratitude in the Facebook group &#8220;Lost, Found, Stolen, Belgrade GSP and Surroundings.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;All credit to him. Something like this has never happened to me before. I would have expected to have my lost luggage returned in Germany, though Germany isn&#8217;t what it used to be either,&#8221; the interviewee added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><mark style=\"background-color:#FFFFFF;color:#d21414\" class=\"has-inline-color\">MORE TOPICS:<\/mark><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/heroes-of-our-time-serbian-firefighters-extinguished-more-than-1400-fires-in-10-days-saved-the-lives-of-15-people\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">HEROES OF OUR TIME: Serbian firefighters extinguished more than 1,400 fires in 10 days, saved the lives of 15 people!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/invincible-serbian-voivode-170-years-since-the-birth-of-the-legendary-zivojin-misic\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">INVINCIBLE SERBIAN VOIVODE: 170 years since the birth of the legendary \u017divojin Mi\u0161i\u0107!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/serbian-delusion-or-fate-the-corfu-declaration-was-an-introduction-to-the-formation-of-the-kingdom-of-serbs-croats-and-slovenes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">SERBIAN DELUSION OR FATE: The Corfu Declaration was an introduction to the formation of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/the-gold-harvest-continues-adriana-vilagos-will-also-listen-to-the-anthem-as-european-champion\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">THE GOLD HARVEST CONTINUES: Adriana Vilago\u0161 will also listen to the anthem as European champion!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/our-pride-our-glory-angelina-topic-is-the-new-european-champion\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">OUR PRIDE, OUR GLORY!
