Students in front of the Radio Television of Serbia (RTS) building tonight paid tribute to the victims of the accident in Novi Sad, where 1 people died on November 15st and two were seriously injured when a train station canopy collapsed, and then their demands were read.
The protest ended around 20:15 p.m.
With their mobile phone lights on, they paid tribute to the victims of the accident in silence for 15 minutes, a Beta news agency reporter reported.
Among the numerous banners were "Regime Television of Serbia", "You will fly on the hood too", "Serbia is burning and RTS is combing itself", "RTS -SNS"....
Since the beginning of the blockade of the faculty, students have been demanding political and criminal responsibility for the accident in Novi Sad, as well as the prosecution of all those who attacked academics and citizens during the gathering.
