On June 25, parliament adopted amendments to laws on public prosecution, judges, the High Prosecutorial Council, court and prosecutor territories, and bodies for fighting high-tech crime. Those five judicial laws were part of voting on 32 items, alongside transplantation, support for young first-home buyers, international agreements, and state guarantees for Srbijagas.
On June 25, the dispute now has several layers: Dacic says LRAD devices exist but were not used in Serbia; former VBA director Momir Stojanovic sees the searches and forensic checks of Aleksandar Radic's equipment as misuse of military structures; lawyer Jugoslav Tintor told N1 that 'simulation' without force or threat is not terrorism; Danas cites doctors and medical-law experts who say examining citizens who reported symptoms after March 15 was a legal duty.
On June 24, MPs finished detailed debate on all items of the extraordinary session; Ana Brnabic announced voting on 32 agenda points, including the judicial-law package, for June 25 at 10:00. The final block covered state guarantees for Srbijagas and Srbijavoz loans; Dusan Bajatovic said Srbijagas lost EUR 200 million over two years because of social pricing policy, while opposition MPs cited corruption, rising public debt, and commercial-bank loans with interest rates up to 4.78%.
After Aleksandar Olenik’s UKP interview on June 24, the dispute widened: the Belgrade Bar Association board accused VJT and prosecutor Miodrag Markovic of undermining the presumption of innocence and procedural rights, while VJT replied that the bar’s reaction was pressure on prosecutors. Separately, NKEU backed civil-society requests to UN bodies for an independent international investigation into claims that a “sound cannon” was used at the March 15, 2025 protest.
On June 23, Serbia's parliament continued its extraordinary session on 32 agenda items and moved to debate 37 amendments to the key judicial laws in the Mrdic package; according to N1, opposition amendments were rejected. The sitting ended at about 18:00 and is scheduled to continue on June 24 at 10:00; Justice Minister Nenad Vujic again says the proposals were aligned with the Venice Commission and the EU, while opposition MPs also used the session to raise questions on EXPO and the 'sound cannon' case.
After the June 22 searches, Aleksandar Radic told N1 he had been summoned to military police for forensic examination of seized computers, and later explained that he links his conclusion about sound-weapon use on March 15 to Faraday material and an umbrella that, he says, people from Ćacilend were carrying. Danas carried lawyer Stefan Corda's account of three VJT prosecutors, questioning over media appearances, and no elements of a crime, as well as Beta editor Vojkan Kostic's interview describing his UKP summons as media intimidation; Kurir carries Ana Brnabic's statement that the 'sound cannon' story was a pre-planned lie against Aleksandar Vucic.
