Nov. 21 marks the third consecutive day that opposition assemblymen have been blocking the entrance to Novi Sad’s Courthouse and has already seen another scuffle break out between the protestors and the police guarding the building, around 8:30 a.m.
The tussle led to several assembly representatives falling to the ground and one officer dropping his baton, and also damaged the entrance railing and front door.
The protestors have been demanding the immediate arrest of all those responsible for the Nov. 1 tragedy, where 15 people died in the sudden collapse of a concrete overhang at the city’s recently-renovated main railway station.
