Jednostavno nemam šta da kažem na krajnje neprofesionalno i sramno izveštavanje i još sramnije negiranje protesta zbog rušenja zarad gradnje Beograda na vodi.
Da bih zadržao pristojnost samo ću citirati theGardian:
Storm of protest against officials after buildings were knocked down in the middle of the night for Belgrade Waterfront project and onlooker later died
Thousands of people have protested in the Serbian capital against a wave of demolitions for a real estate development – including a bizarre night-time incident where masked men allegedly tied up onlookers and took their phones as buildings were knocked down for a real estate development.
People took to the streets on Wednesday accusing the authorities of corruption and violence linked to plans to redevelop a popular area of Belgrade. The rally was organised by the Ne Davimo Beograd (Don’t Drown Belgrade) movement, which opposes a €2.7bn deal with an Abu Dhabi-based developer to transform part of Belgrade into an upscale housing and shopping complex.
Demonstrators took aim in particular at an incident on 24 April in the arts and nightlife district of Savamala, where several buildings were demolished in the night by mysterious masked men.
Wearing balaclavas and driving vehicles without number plates, the men allegedly bound onlookers and took their mobile phones while bulldozers razed the buildings, according to local media reports.
Protesters called for the resignation of various police, government and city officials over the demolitions, which cleared part of the way for the Belgrade Waterfront redevelopment.
Demonstrators shouted “Vucic thief!” referring to the prime minister, Aleksandar Vucic. Cries of “This is our town!” and “Resignations!” rang out.
Vucic, who unveiled the waterfront project in 2014, has branded the masked men “idiots” for their behaviour but said the buildings had been scheduled for demolition.
They should have been razed during the day, Vucic told reporters earlier this month, adding that he would have attended the demolition “with pleasure”.
The agreement signed with developer Eagle Hills aims to turn parts of Savamala and surrounding areas into nearly two million square metres of malls, offices and apartment blocks.
