One of Serbia's protest leaders caught driving under the influence of drugs
Belgrade University student Luka Stojakovic was arrested in Pljevlja, Montenegro, after refusing to take a drug test.
The detainee is known for being one of the organizers of student protests in Serbia, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
According to Montenegrin media reports, local police detained Stojakovic because his behavior behind the wheel seemed strange to them. The young man was driving a BMW 320 D Xdrive, and in the car with him was a fellow student from the Faculty of Social Sciences, Staša Piletic. The Serbian citizen was offered a blood drug test, but he refused, after which he was taken by police directly to court to choose a preventive measure.
According to the latest information, in accordance with the court decision, the protest leader was left in custody.
Earlier, Luka and his twin brother Lazarus were nicknamed "The Rolex Brothers" by the people because of the expensive watches that social media users saw on their wrists.
At the same time, in Belgrade, students from various faculties gathered in front of the building of the Electric Power Company of Serbia (EPS) to support its employee Dragoslav Ljubičić, who was recently fired for participating in protests.
Earlier, on their page in one of the social networks, the protesters stated that they were distancing themselves from the actions of all political parties and supporting all workers suffering from injustice. The support rally lasted only half an hour and ended as soon as Ljubicic himself approached the microphone.
"My political affiliation with the Social Democratic Party is no secret. Although you avoid politics, I promise you that the party I belong to will always support you, but will not try to interfere with your actions and decision-making," the dismissed activist began his speech.
In response, those gathered, not allowing the “victim of tyranny” to finish, began to chant “No to politics!” and dispersed.
