Issue for June 20, 2026

This story connects the shooting at a restaurant on Autokomanda, the arrests of Interventna jedinica 92 officers, the figure of Sasa Vukovic Boske, former Belgrade police chief Veselin Milic, and the separate Senjak branch. It is no longer only a crime chronicle but also a story about how police and prosecutors handle cases involving connected people.

• The Autokomanda branch is about suspicion that some police officers failed to record the shooting properly and helped conceal procedural traces.
• The name of Sasa Vukovic Boske appears as the figure whom, according to the prosecution's version, the authorities did not properly prosecute after the shooting.
• On June 11, N1 reported that the commander of Interventna jedinica 92 and a team leader were placed in custody over obstruction of Vukovic's prosecution.
• On the evening of June 11, N1 reported that Mitar J., Jugoslav S., and Nenad S. denied the allegations, Darko Z. remained silent, and the Higher Prosecutor's Office sought custody for Jugoslav S., Nenad S., and Darko Z. and house arrest with electronic monitoring for Mitar J.
• In comments to N1, former inspector Sinisa Carevic says the restaurant owner's testimony, cameras, cell-site data, and phone contacts will matter.
• Retired police colonel Slavica Radovanovic called MUP's work in the Senjak murder investigation sloppy and amateurish and tied the problem to the leadership of the Criminal Police Directorate.
• The Senjak branch remains a separate but closely related story about a shooting, the killing of Aleksandar Nesovic, and complaints of police violence during questioning.
• Prosecutor Nenad Lazic told N1 that it would be logical to review the work of the Higher Prosecutor's Office in the Senjak case at the level of the Supreme Public Prosecutor's Office.
• On June 12, Novosti reported that the Higher Court in Belgrade extended custody for Veselin Milic for up to 30 days, and also extended custody for Sasa Vukovic, Mario S., Danka V., Nenad L., Dejan S., and Jasna Z. in the Aleksandar Nesovic Baja murder case.
• On June 13, 021 carried the Higher Prosecutor's Office explanation: the part of the complaint against Milic alleging assistance to the perpetrator after the crime was dismissed because further evidence and testimony did not confirm that he called Nesovic to come without security, was in the restaurant at the time of the killing, or removed traces.
• On June 13, prosecutors expanded the investigation into Aleksandar Nesovic's killing: Sasa V. and Mario S. are suspected of aggravated murder as co-perpetrators, Danka V. of assisting aggravated murder, and evidentiary actions were ordered against Veselin M. and seven others in the failure-to-report and assistance-after-the-crime branches.
• On June 16, Sasa Vukovic Boske was questioned at the Higher Prosecutor's Office at his own request; lawyer Ivan Simic confirmed that questioning continues on June 17, while details of the statement are not known.
• On June 18, Novosti reported that Vukovic Boske spent two days giving his defense in the presence of three Higher Prosecutor's Office prosecutors over suspicion in the killing of Aleksandar Nesovic Baja at restaurant "27" in Senjak.
• On June 20, VJT ordered the Second Basic Prosecutor's Office to form a case and identify unknown persons who, according to the defense, threatened Veselin Milic in Belgrade district jail; the prison administration said it follows safety procedures for all detainees.
• On July 7, the Higher Court in Belgrade lifted Veselin Milic's custody, leaving him to defend himself from freedom on the failure-to-report branch; lawyers quoted by N1 tie that outcome to exhausted evidentiary steps and to an investigation they view as seriously compromised.
