  • A Serbian politician claims security services leaked information about a murder on Senjak.
  • The information was allegedly sold to a foreign national who published it.
  • The politician asserts that someone within the security services must have had the data.

Aleksandar Ivanović, a Serbian Member of Parliament and deputy member of the National Movement of Serbia's Committee for Control of Security Services, asserts that information regarding a murder on Senjak must have originated from within the security services. He stated that it is impossible for someone in the security system not to have had data about the killing.

Ivanović claims that this information was subsequently sold to a foreign national who then published it. This suggests a significant breach of security and potential corruption within the agencies responsible for maintaining public safety and handling sensitive information. The implication is that internal actors are compromising investigations and potentially endangering national security.

The politician's statement highlights concerns about the integrity and transparency of Serbia's security apparatus. The alleged leak points to a lack of control over classified information and raises questions about accountability within the system. Ivanović's position on the oversight committee gives his claims particular weight, suggesting a deep-seated issue that requires urgent attention and investigation.

It is impossible that someone from the security services did not have data about the murder on Senjak and that someone from the security system sold this information, because it went to a citizen from abroad who is publishing it.
