Tens of thousands marched through Belgrade on Friday in an anti-government protest following two mass shootings that killed 18 people, blaming the deaths on a culture of violence that critics say authorities have allowed to fester unchecked.
"I came here to protest against living in this country the way it is now, against violence which is visible everywhere in public speech, in media, against this evil we are living in and against the way this country is being led," said a university professor who gave her name as Vera.Reuters estimated the protest, the third of its kind this month, drew a crowd in the tens of thousands.
The government denies the opposition parties' allegations and accuses them of organising the protests for political gain. Gasic on Friday admitted in parliament that several criminal complaints had been filed against the 21-year-old shooter but were never processed. In a counter-rally in Pancevo, a town outside Belgrade, Vucic accused the opposition of trying to use the mass shootings for self promotion. "Serbia is fed up with your revolutions," he said .
