Report Alleges Serbian Football Official Hired Criminals to Threaten Nemanja Vidić

A new investigation by KRIK alleges that Slaviša Kokeza, a former football official, hired criminals to intimidate and potentially attack Nemanja Vidić, a prominent figure in Serbian football. The report, citing leaked Sky app messages, suggests a disturbing connection between football structures, criminal elements, and potentially political influence.

These revelations raise serious questions about the extent of criminal involvement within Serbian football and its possible ties to political power. The investigation probes whether this is an isolated incident within the sport's administration or indicative of a broader network involving political influence and fan groups.

President Aleksandar Vučić has reportedly responded to inquiries about the matter by stating that neither Vidić nor Kokeza are significant to him. The report also briefly mentions other current events, including the upcoming Belgrade Pride under the slogan "There is room for all of us," President Vučić's announcements of cheaper medicines and financial aid, and student protests.
