BELGRADE President Aleksandar Vucic had a staunch warning for the criminal underworld after a meeting last weekend of Serbia s National Security Council. Our message is that we re done with this gang, Vucic said on March 6. To those who think they have inherited [the gang and its membership], I can say, You re done, meaning you ll soon be behind bars.
Vucic had hinted a day earlier that the Serbian public would be shocked at what police had uncovered since the February 4 roundup of a soccer hooligan and reputed crime boss along with nearly two dozen other suspects.
Police at the time alleged that organizer Veljko Belivuk and his thuggish supporters of Belgrade s storied FK Partizan were not soccer fans but criminals responsible for monstrous crimes.
