The lawyer for Serbian military analyst Aleksandar Radić has announced an appeal against a Belgrade Higher Court decision that ordered his detention and issued an arrest warrant. Radić is suspected of preparing acts against Serbia's constitutional order and security, as well as leaking secret information concerning the alleged use of a "sound cannon" during protests on March 15, 2025. The court's decision to detain Radić was based on indications that he is attempting to flee or hide. The Higher Public Prosecutor's Office initiated the request for detention and the warrant. Radić departed Serbia on June 26, following the publication of surveillance footage by pro-government media outlets that reportedly showed him and his minor daughter being followed. His lawyer, Stefan Ćorda, confirmed to N1 that the appeal will be filed within the three-day legal limit. The details surrounding the "sound cannon" and the alleged secret data remain unclear, as does the specific nature of the protests mentioned.
