Following the two armed attacks that killed 17 people last week in Belgrade, the capital of Serbia, 50,000 people took to the streets to protest violence. The demonstrators held Interior Minister Bratislav Gasic and Security and Intelligence Agency Head Aleksandar Vulin responsible for the attacks and demanded their resignation. They also demanded the cessation of incitement to violence, the removal of violent programs, the resignation of the management of Serbian Radio and Television (RTS) and the supervisory board that determines which channels will be broadcast in Serbia.
