The police were not guided by professional standards and expertise. Things were not done in accordance with the law, but on the basis of orders and demands from political centers of power. And perhaps from other, informal centers of power as well. I recently joked about this when the Students&#8217; List victory was announced and they started running away. I asked why the police officers didn&#8217;t at least take two people each with them, whoever they managed to catch there \u2013 they wouldn&#8217;t have made a mistake,\u201d \u017divkovi\u0107 said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u017divkovi\u0107 agrees with the assessment made by political analyst Aleksandar Ivkovi\u0107 in our film <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=qLMIUrFdaTA&amp;t=4s&amp;utm_source=chatgpt.com\">\u201cPeople by the Canopy\u201d<\/a>, according to which bloodshed was avoided on March 15, 2025, and October 25 this year, thanks to the effective response of students and citizens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to testimony by security worker Mom\u010dilo Marjanovi\u0107, featured in the BIRN film \u201cConfession from \u0106acilend,\u201d numerous civilians in the informal tent settlement were armed with firearms, and some are suspected of having links to organized crime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-serbiantimes-info wp-block-embed-serbiantimes-info\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"tbfT84F7fq\"><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/stradali-planinar-bio-sin-srpskog-svestenika-otac-ucestvovao-u-potrazi-za-njim-sa-slovenackim-spasiocima-na-triglavu\/\">STRADALI PLANINAR BIO SIN SRPSKOG SVE\u0160TENIKA: Otac u\u010destvovao u potrazi za njim sa slovena\u010dkim spasiocima na Triglavu<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; visibility: hidden;\" title=\"\u201eSTRADALI PLANINAR BIO SIN SRPSKOG SVE\u0160TENIKA: Otac u\u010destvovao u potrazi za njim sa slovena\u010dkim spasiocima na Triglavu\u201c \u2014 Serbiantimes.info\" src=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/stradali-planinar-bio-sin-srpskog-svestenika-otac-ucestvovao-u-potrazi-za-njim-sa-slovenackim-spasiocima-na-triglavu\/embed\/#?secret=7epcxaKmUh#?secret=tbfT84F7fq\" data-secret=\"tbfT84F7fq\" width=\"500\" height=\"282\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOnly through the wisdom of the other side, by not giving an obvious pretext for it, was violence avoided in both cases, violence that was orchestrated by the regime. They had no other participants in their planning and assessments because violence never came from this side. They knew how to carry it out: by planting provocateurs or members of criminal gangs who would pose as citizens and students and provide a pretext for clashes. This has long been recognized as their modus operandi, and thank God it has finally come to an end,\u201d \u017divkovi\u0107 said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The IZLAZ.com interviewee does not want to speculate about why violence did not break out on election night or why Aleksandar Vu\u010di\u0107 quickly conceded defeat. However, he is certain that the high voter turnout and the SNS&#8217;s decisive defeat played a key role, regardless of whether someone from Europe called the former president and warned him under no circumstances to provoke violence over the \u0106acilend situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-serbiantimes-info wp-block-embed-serbiantimes-info\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"v0h60YbkrS\"><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/nema-vise-nedodirljivih-izdat-nalog-za-hapsenje-vlasnika-milenijum-tima-zbog-nelegalnog-rusenja-i-gradnje-na-mestu-hotela-jugoslavija\/\">NEMA VI\u0160E NEDODIRLJIVIH: Izdat nalog za hap\u0161enje vlasnika Milenijum tima zbog gra\u0111enja bez gra\u0111evinske dozvole na mestu hotela \u201eJugoslavija\u201c!<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; visibility: hidden;\" title=\"\u201eNEMA VI\u0160E NEDODIRLJIVIH: Izdat nalog za hap\u0161enje vlasnika Milenijum tima zbog gra\u0111enja bez gra\u0111evinske dozvole na mestu hotela \u201eJugoslavija\u201c!\u201c \u2014 Serbiantimes.info\" src=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/nema-vise-nedodirljivih-izdat-nalog-za-hapsenje-vlasnika-milenijum-tima-zbog-nelegalnog-rusenja-i-gradnje-na-mestu-hotela-jugoslavija\/embed\/#?secret=Ku2JteDVQC#?secret=v0h60YbkrS\" data-secret=\"v0h60YbkrS\" width=\"500\" height=\"282\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And what should be done about everyone involved in \u0106acilend, and how can justice be achieved? \u017divkovi\u0107 believes this is almost a routine matter, provided it is approached seriously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThat will not be a problem.
