This verdict is not final and both the prosecution and the defense can appeal to the Belgrade Court of Appeal.

The convicted Grbović’s lawyer, Vanja Gajić, told KRIK that he would do so because he believes that the court acted with prejudice and prejudice, among other things, because he rejected his proposal to listen to two “Nana” waiters who attended the event.

“I think Grbović was punished too harshly, that the court did not respect and did not adequately evaluate the evidence presented during this procedure,” Gajić said.

Grbović was not found guilty of injuring Savković’s friend, Adi Isenović, and of illegally carrying a weapon because he was not specifically charged with it, that is, it was not found in the indictment as a separate criminal offense.

Apart from Grbović, Miloš Tančev, Stevan Dukić and Stefan Šapurić also sat on the bench for the previous two years, and the prosecution claimed that they participated in the fight that preceded the murder as security for the “Nana” nightclub. All three were released because, as Judge Marina Andjelković said, it was not proven that they participated in the fight, although it was claimed that Dukić had injuries to his body.

Savkovic was killed in the early hours of December 2017 in front of “Nana” and, a few days later, the police arrested alleged security worker Nedeljko Grbovic. He first denied the crime, but later admitted that he shot Savkovic. At the trial, he said he felt threatened because he thought Savkovic took his gun and that they wanted to kill him and his son, who was working as a waiter that night.

He said the shooting was preceded by an argument between Savković and his friends with Red Star fans. He and his fellow security officers tried to avoid the conflict but failed. He also said that that night he had his first problem with Isenović, who threatened him.

“I felt powerless. I could already see him breaking my head and hitting me. When he was about two meters from me, I pulled out a gun. At that moment, I peed in my pants,” Grbović said.

Grbović shot and wounded Isenović, and then, as he put it, he saw Savković approaching him.

“I raised my gun to him and said, ‘No, Savka, please,'” Grbović said, adding that Savković started saying that he would kill him and his son.

“He accelerated towards me, started grabbing my belt. At that moment, I shot in his direction.”

Grbovic then said that it was not the first time that the murdered man had caused trouble at the club and that “he knew he was sitting in the central booth and shooting at the ceiling”, as well as that fifteen days before the murder, Savkovic arrived at “Nana “and security. He pointed to the “scorpion” with the words, “Is there a problem guys?”

Grbović’s story was confirmed by other defendants: They said Savković’s company behaved inappropriately, causing problems, and Tancev and Šapurić said they heard that Savković threatened Grbović. Shapuric said that Grbovic and the late Savkovic were on good terms and that Grbovic took him home the night before the murder because he was drunk.

Isenović, for his part, claimed that he and Savković did not cause any problems at the club, but that security kicked them out.

“We were sitting in the booth, I didn’t see any incident on our part, not even breaking a glass, as I heard it said. Security was suddenly created around us and he expelled us, “Isenović told the court previously. He reiterated several times that he did not give a reason for the incident and that he is not clear about what Grbović’s motive might be for shooting him.

Savkovic’s friends who were with him that night told the same story: there were no incidents or riots.

Grbović’s psychological experience was also carried out at the trial, which showed that he did not react out of fear at the time of the shooting, but out of anger. Based on experience, the prosecutor noted in her closing remarks that Grbović could not be trusted when she said that she fired because she feared for her life.

Savkovic was a member of the United Force fan group, the Rad football club. Photos from social media show that he was also a member of the team of Aleksandar Stanković Sale Mutavi, a convicted drug trafficker and leader of the fan group “Janjičari” who was murdered in central Belgrade in October 2016. Savković is in Stanković’s company and its close associates. – Veljko Belivuk and Boris Karapandzic, with whom he participated in the demolition of the “Hollywood” cafe in Karaburma in December 2013, owned by Aleksandar Vavic, one of the leaders of the Partizan “Alcatraz” fan group.

Savkovic was sentenced to one year in prison for that, Karapandzic was sentenced to four years, while the prosecution dropped Belivuk’s prosecution because they seized the opportunity and paid 100,000 dinars. Read more about Savković’s criminal past here.
