Vučić: The body of missing Aleksandar Nešković has not yet been found

Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić said that the body of missing Aleksandar Nešković has not been found.

Veselin Milić, the former chief of the Belgrade police, was arrested due to Nešković's disappearance.

Vučić said that crime has been reduced by five percent, and that all serious murders and attempted murders have been solved, reports Danas.

"I read this information because there are daily attacks by anyone with any interest in the security sector in Serbia. I said this to ask all of you journalists not to go public with unverified information. Several media outlets reported that the body had been found. This story of 'no body, no crime' is so imbecile that there are no words," Vučić said.

He added that in this case too, the state behaved professionally.

"I want to say that we still haven't found the body. The search is intense, the units are looking for everything, a huge number of members are involved," Vučić said.

Veselin Milić was questioned yesterday at the Higher Public Prosecutor's Office in Belgrade on suspicion that, as the Chief of the Belgrade City Police Department, he committed several criminal offenses with the aim of covering up the criminal offense of attempted aggravated murder in a restaurant in Senjak on May 12, 2026, after which Aleksandar Nešović was reported missing the next day.

After the hearing, the prosecution proposed to the pre-trial judge of the Higher Court in Belgrade that the suspect be remanded in custody so that he would not influence witnesses and so that he would not repeat the criminal offense in a short period of time.

The order to conduct an investigation charges Milić with the criminal offenses of failure to report a criminal offense and the perpetrator, and assisting the perpetrator after the criminal offense was committed.
