Belgrade’s public transport has turned into a battlefield! A 24-year-old man, M. I., was arrested after stabbing 43-year-old P. S. on a bus. What started as a simple argument quickly escalated into a nightmare in front of shocked passengers. M. I. pulled out a knife at the bus stop and stabbed the victim multiple times in the hands, causing light injuries. The investigation is ongoing, led by the First Basic Public Prosecutor’s Office in Belgrade. This is not an isolated incident – violence on public transport is becoming an everyday reality, and citizens are asking: how much longer?
Violence on Belgrade’s streets – the new normal?
This isn’t the first time conflicts on public transport have ended in violence. Every day we hear about fights, threats, and even armed attacks. Has public transport become a dangerous place? It sure seems so. People are increasingly afraid to use buses and trams, and authorities are failing to solve the problem.
Who’s to blame?
Is the problem with the youth, society, or the system? Many experts warn that society is becoming lonelier and more anxious, leading to a rise in violence. The pandemic made things worse, and social media only fueled tensions.
What are the authorities doing?
Investigations continue, but no solutions are in sight. Police and prosecutors are doing their jobs, but violence doesn’t stop. Citizens demand urgent measures – more control, better lighting at stops, video surveillance, and harsher punishments for offenders.
Conclusion
Belgrade is on the edge of losing control over its streets and transport. If nothing changes, soon we’ll all have to wonder if safety on public transport is just a myth. What about you?
