Vucevic accused of downplaying assault on student Ana Vucak

Milos Vucevic, leader of the Serbian Radical Party (SNS) and former prime minister, has revised his account of the January 2025 attack on student Ana Vucak in Novi Sad. Initially stating he resigned due to 'objective responsibility' for the incident, Vucevic now claims Vucak was involved in a physical confrontation, fell, and injured her chin, rather than being struck with a baseball bat. Her lawyer, Srdjan Hromis, disputes this, asserting that forensic evidence confirms the injury was caused by a blunt object and constitutes serious bodily harm. Vucevic also alleged Vucak appeared at a protest three days later, implying her jaw was not broken, but Hromis countered that the video was from a different event and that Vucak could not speak due to a fixed jaw. Legal representatives of Vucak are considering further action against ongoing efforts to challenge the established facts.

Bias read (Right): The article frames Vucevic's revision of the incident as an attempt to 'relativize violence' and 'retraumatize witnesses,' which implies a critique of his position.
