Part 6/11:
Public outrage reached its apex with protests in Novi Sad as citizens demanded justice for victims and accountability from officials. As tensions mounted, Minister of Construction, Goran Vesić, resigned under pressure, while the government initiated an investigation that quickly became a farce aimed at scapegoating lower-level workers rather than addressing the responsibilities of higher-ups.
Demonstrations spread like wildfire as students and everyday citizens took to the streets in solidarity, challenging the government’s accountability. The protests evolved into a broader movement against corruption, with significant demands including transparency in public projects and the prosecution of those responsible for the renovation.
