Vienna, 18/10/2012
The Vienna-based South East Europe Media Organisation (SEEMO), an affiliate of the International Press Institute (IPI), urges Serbian police to investigate the latest attack on a journalist in Serbia.
On 16 October 2012 in the evening, a Molotov cocktail was thrown at the house of Damir Dragic, director of the Belgrade-based tabloid daily Informer. Although nobody was injured, the family car was gutted by fire.
“I urge the Serbian police to investigate this and previous assaults on journalists and bring the perpetrators to justice, “said SEEMO Secretary General Oliver Vujovic.
