11 arrested for racial discrimination, espionage

Belgrade, 29 September 2025

The Ministry of Interior announced today that police officers arrested 11 persons from the area of Velika Plana and Belgrade, on reasonable suspicion of committing the criminal offences of conspiracy to commit criminal offences, racial and other discrimination and espionage.

There are grounds for suspicion that the suspect M. G., who is currently at large, acting under the instructions of a foreign intelligence service, organised and trained a group of Serbian citizens on the territory of Serbia.

The aim of this group was to, based on differences in race, skin colour, religious affiliation, nationality and ethnic origin, violate fundamental human rights and freedoms guaranteed by generally accepted rules of international law and ratified international treaties, on the territories of France and Germany.

Their objective was also to spread ideas that advocate and incite hatred, discrimination and violence based on the above-mentioned personal characteristics of certain groups of people.

These activities were carried out in the period from April to September 2025, by throwing green paint on the Holocaust Museum, several synagogues and a Jewish restaurant, pasting stickers with “genocidal” content, placing pig heads at Muslim religious facilities, all in the area of Paris, as well as placing concrete “skeletons” with inscribed messages in front of the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin.
