The Higher Public Prosecutor's Office in Belgrade has stated that the case files concerning former Belgrade police chief Veselin Milić remain with their office and have not been transferred to the First Basic Public Prosecutor's Office.
Milić is currently under investigation for the criminal offense of "failure to report a crime and perpetrator." This investigation is linked to the murder of Aleksandar Nešović, known as Baja, which occurred on May 12, 2026, at the "27" restaurant in Senjak.
Nešović, allegedly a member of the "Keka group," was found dead in a barrel buried near Jarkovačko Lake, close to Inđija. Saša Vuković Boske is suspected as the direct perpetrator and has been in custody since May 14.
Initially, Milić and three police officers from his security detail were suspected of participating in the concealment of evidence related to the crime. However, these charges were dismissed. The current proceedings focus solely on Milić's alleged failure to report the murder itself.
