The Higher Public Prosecutor’s Office in Belgrade interrogated Nikola B. (19) on suspicion that, together with a minor, he killed Ivan A. (24) on June 6 on Gavrila Principa Street. The suspects are charged with murder, unauthorized possession of weapons, and attempted murder. Nikola B. exercised his right to remain silent.
