Boske, Senjak, and Autokomanda
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.
What matters
The Autokomanda branch is about suspicion that some police officers failed to record the shooting properly and helped conceal procedural traces.
What changed
- The Higher Court in Belgrade lifted Veselin Milic's custody, moving him to defense from freedom on the branch alleging failure to report Aleksandar Nesovic's killing at restaurant "27" in Senjak. In comments to N1, lawyers Vladimir Terzic and Bozo Prelevic tie that decision to exhausted evidentiary steps and to an investigation they say is already too compromised.
Chronology
Milic: out of custody
N1 reports that the Higher Court in Belgrade has lifted custody for former Belgrade police chief Veselin Milic and that he has already left Central Prison, meaning he will defend himself from freedom in the next phase. In N1's reporting and the lawyers' comments carried there, the case has narrowed to the failure-to-report branch around the killing of Aleksandar Nešović at restaurant 27 in Senjak, while critics tie the release to the fact that evidentiary actions on that branch are exhausted and that the investigation has already been seriously compromised.

Senjak: prosecutors expand the Nesovic murder investigation and clarify Milic's role
On June 13, the Higher Prosecutor's Office said it had expanded the investigation into Aleksandar Nesovic's killing at restaurant "27" in Senjak: Sasa V. and Mario S. are now suspected of aggravated murder as co-perpetrators, Danka V. of assisting aggravated murder, and evidentiary actions were ordered for eight more suspects. Veselin Milic now appears in the failure-to-report branch; prosecutors had earlier explained that the assistance-after-the-crime part of the complaint was dismissed because evidence did not confirm he was present at the killing or removed traces.
