Despite the reactions, public condemnations, and appeals to the relevant authorities to respond to the threats to the safety of media workers in Serbia, the threats received by N1 television journalist Mladen Savatović and the authors of the show "Dobar loš zao," as well as the columnists of Danas, Marko Vidojković and Nenad Kulačin, continue day after day.

Brankica Stanković was assigned 24-hour security by the Ministry of the Interior at that time, based on security assessments, which she had for many years. Her safety was threatened due to the series “(In)ability of the State” about hooligans. After several years of absence, in the last year and a half, chanting against Brankica Stanković at Partizan's matches has become regular, occurring at least once or twice a month. In addition to thousands of fans in the arena, the lyrics of threatening, offensive, and misogynistic songs can be heard by tens and hundreds of thousands of viewers through television broadcasts and the internet. No report to the prosecutor's office has led to arrests, detentions, or court rulings.

The Association of Independent Electronic Media (ANEM) calls on the relevant authorities to urgently identify and sanction those responsible for the bomb threat reported two days ago in the building housing the editorial office of Kurir and the portals Mondo and Espreso.

The Association of Independent Electronic Media (ANEM) expresses concern over the new threats directed at television N1 on the social network X and journalist Mladen Savatović. It calls on the relevant authorities to urgently identify the perpetrators and send a clear message that such cases must be addressed to prevent them from continuing.

Today at 4:10 PM, Vuk Cvijić, a journalist for the weekly magazine Radar, received a call from an unknown number from abroad. In a brief conversation, he was given a direct threatening warning regarding an article that will be published tomorrow in the new issue of this weekly magazine.

In last night's appearance on the news program of Radio-Television of Serbia, President Aleksandar Vučić expressed views that can be characterized as unlawful interference in the process of selecting members of the REM Council and its future operations, according to the Association of Independent Electronic Media (ANEM), which is the authorized proposer of candidates for the REM Council.

After receiving several threats over the weekend via Facebook accounts, Marko Vidojković and Nenad Kulačin also received a threat directed at them and their guests on the YouTube account of the show "Good, Bad, Evil."

The Association of Independent Electronic Media (ANEM) calls on representatives of the police not to obstruct the work of journalists reporting in front of the National Assembly of Serbia and to allow the media to safely carry out their work from that public space.

The Association of Independent Electronic Media (ANEM) strongly condemns the behavior of Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić towards N1 television journalist Mladen Savatović and reminds the President and all other state officials that they should be aware of the words they speak in public and the potential consequences those words may have.
