Night Blockades in Belgrade: Police Checked 1130 People, 107 Detained for Disturbances!
Thought Belgrade was peaceful at night? Think again! In just one night, the police checked the identities of a whopping 1130 people, and 107 ended up detained due to blockades and disturbances. Yes, you read that right – over a thousand people checked, hundreds detained! All because of road blockades that paralyzed the city.
Where did it happen? Incidents were recorded in Belgrade and Zrenjanin. Two participants in the Zrenjanin blockades were lightly injured, but police officers remained unharmed. In Belgrade, important traffic arteries were blocked, but public transport continued to operate normally. Police increased patrols to respond promptly.
What does the Ministry of Interior say? Minister of Interior Dačić clearly stated: “We cannot allow a small number of people to block the vital arteries of the city!” Police checked 1130 people, and 107 were detained for offenses and suspicion of criminal acts. One person is even suspected of committing a criminal offense.
What happened on the ground? Some sporadic incidents were recorded, but police acted according to the law. In Zrenjanin, two blockade participants were lightly injured when a driver not involved in the gathering tried to pass through a blocked intersection.
Police appeal The Ministry of Interior appeals to citizens to refrain from illegal activities and not to block traffic, especially in ways that could endanger the safety of all traffic participants.
What about other cities? Similar blockades and detentions were recorded in Valjevo, Kraljevo, and Čačak, where police also intervened due to public order disturbances.
Shocking numbers! In one night: 1130 checked, 107 detained, 2 injured participants, 1 suspected criminal offense. Is this the price of freedom of expression or excessive repression? The debate is open!
Conclusion Belgrade and surrounding cities are in night blockades, and the police are not backing down. Dačić and the Ministry of Interior send a clear message: “Blockades are not allowed!” But will this stop dissatisfied citizens? Or will the number of detainees only increase?
If you thought this was the end, think again! This drama is just beginning. So, what do you think about these night blockades? Has the police overstepped, or is this the only way to maintain order? Drop a comment, let your voice be heard!
