The German Embassy rejected Gašić's claim: "The government has no knowledge of who killed Oliver Ivanovic."

Today, the German Embassy in Belgrade categorically rejected the claim of Serbian Police Minister Bratislava Gasic that the killer of politician Oliver Ivanovic is under the protection of the German authorities.

"The German government has no knowledge of who killed Oliver Ivanović on January 16, 2018. We categorically reject the accusation that the perpetrator is under the protection of the German authorities. The federal government has not received the request of the Serbian authorities on this matter," the Embassy stated in a statement delivered to the Beta agency.

Yesterday, at the session of the Serbian Parliament, Gašić said that the Serbian authorities "know exactly" who killed Ivanovic and that the perpetrator is "under the protection" of the German authorities.

"We know exactly who the killer is and we asked the German authorities, under whose protection that man is, to give us information. We have a video from the airport in Tirana, we have pictures from Pristina, we have pictures when he entered the apartment," said Gasic. .

Ivanović, the leader of the Civic Initiative Freedom, Democracy, Justice, was killed on January 16, 2018, with multiple gunshots, in front of the headquarters of that party in the northern part of Kosovska Mitrovica.
