VJT re-interrogates Saša Vuković at his personal request

Saša Vuković, known as Boske, who is suspected of murdering Aleksandar Nešović in the restaurant "27," is undergoing a second interrogation at his personal request. The process is taking place before three public prosecutors, according to RTS.

Vuković had previously exercised his right to remain silent during his initial interrogation on May 16. He is accused of killing Nešović, whose body was discovered several days later in a barrel buried near Inđija. The Higher Public Prosecutor's Office (VJT) in Belgrade is conducting a broad investigation into the case, involving 12 other individuals.

Among those under investigation is Veselin Milić, the former head of the Belgrade police. Milić's pre-trial detention was extended by another 30 days on June 12. In total, 14 people have been arrested in connection with this case.

Milić was initially arrested along with 10 others on suspicion of involvement in Nešović's murder, which allegedly occurred on May 12 at the "27" restaurant in Senjak. Saša Vuković is suspected of firing the shots. Initial suspicions also suggested Milić and three of his security detail participated in concealing evidence. However, on June 3, the VJT announced that criminal charges against these three police officers were dropped due to insufficient evidence.

Milić was first interrogated on May 15, the day of his arrest, where he provided a defense. He was subsequently placed in detention for 30 days. A second interrogation occurred on June 3 due to new evidence, the prosecution stated. A search of Milić's apartment and office was conducted on May 29, 14 days after his arrest. Milić's lawyer, Nemanja Vasiljević, released a portion of Milić's statement to the media, in which the former police chief accused colleagues of framing him and claimed that the evidence cited in the indictment was not presented to the prosecutor.
