Several dozen masked men gathered tonight in front of the Serbian Cultural Center in Zagreb, where the Days of Serbian Culture are being held, but they soon dispersed after the police arrived.
The gathered men sang "Croatia, an Independent State." Most wore black clothing, hoods on their heads, and masks over their faces.
Special police are still at the scene in the city center on Preradovićeva Street.
The Croatian portal Indeks reports that some of the men were identified by the police in the surrounding streets and released.
The gathering is linked to a recent incident in Split where masked men, mostly members of the Torcida fan group, prevented the opening of a cultural event by the Serbian national community.
The exhibition "Ephemeris - the legacy of Dejan Medaković" was opened in Zagreb this evening by the president of the Independent Serbian Democratic Party, MP Milorad Pupovac.
This opened the Days of Serbian Culture in Zagreb, and the event was attended by several representatives of political parties.
Several dozen hooligans, mostly masked and dressed in black, prevented the opening of a cultural event of the Serbian national minority in Split on the evening of November 3rd.
Some of them shouted the Ustasha salute "For the homeland, ready." As Croatian media reported at the time, among them were several members of the Torcida fan group, and they told the crowd that they could not perform because this was the month in which the suffering of Vukovar was commemorated.
