JOURNALIST Miroslav Milakov is concerned for his safety, noting that he became the target of Marinika Tepic’s attack for “exposing her adventure.” During his guest appearance on TV Pink, a correspondence was shown in which Tepić asked the drug dealer to evict the journalist from Pancevo.
The media reported today that the police will forward to the prosecution the testimony of Novak Filipovic, 40, of Pancevo, who was arrested in early March on suspicion of smuggling 1.4 kilograms of marijuana. “evict Pancevo”, the journalist from Pancevo Miroslav Mico Milakov.
Filipović’s arrest was announced at a press conference on March 11 by Biljana Popović Ivković, State Secretary at the Serbian Interior Ministry, who identified him as a suspect for belonging to a four-member criminal group in which they were found 1 , 4 kilograms of drugs and ammunition.

Popovic Ivkovic later said that Filipovic was “a friend of the vice president of the Freedom and Justice Party, Marinika Tepic, otherwise the owner of a sports club and gym in Pancevo.” On that occasion, he showed photos of Filipović with Marinika Tepić and asked the public to respond “since when he met Filipović from the date of Pancevo, if he received funds from the budget in the period from 2013 to 2016, depending on his long-term friendship, while Tepic was provincial secretary of sports and youth. “
Former RTV editor Pancevo, Miroslav Milakov, says he is horrified by these allegations.
– Now, for the first time, I see in detail. I am concerned for my own safety and the safety of all who work with me. It is not the first time that Marinika Tepic and Djilas’ associates behave like this towards us at RTV Pancevo – Milakov said.
As she says, he is glad that she has shown her face.
Milakov claims that RTV Pancevo has been dealing with Marinika Tepic’s affairs for a year.
Marketing expert Nebojsa Krstic says the statement reveals events that involve journalists.
– It reveals that an opposition politician called for pressure on journalists. No association of journalists reacted. This is dangerous because the principle has been established that there are journalists of the first and second order, who can be harassed by the opposition and demand their expulsion from the city where they work. Journalists’ associations act like parapolitical parties, Krstić said.

– As he says, the law has been violated here, so we need to see how the situation will develop.
Former intelligence officer Božidar Spasić says this is not the first time that politicians have become gangsters.
– She wants to introduce herself as a mafia godfather. We can speak of a completely mafia and corrupt opposition gang, which masks such actions with politics, said Spasić.
Milakov says RTV Pancevo dealt with Tepic for a year and that Djilas’s associate financed Filipovic’s gym while she was provincial sports secretary.
– There were many scandals, Filipović is only a part. He confirmed what we wrote. Tepic said that she was in power and that only she was wondering. He gave more than six million for the Banat Shores project, then seven million for the “Sex for Beginners” project, part of which went to build a private house. I am concerned because it is only part of a violent policy. Is Filipović the only one who received such a message from her? Milakov said.
– He said that Marinika Tepić and her associates left a flower crown in front of RTV Pancevo.

Spasic says this example shows that Tepic cannot think of a journalist who writes about these issues and wants to evict him.
– She shows with all the signs that she is the one who decides. There are many elements to starting an investigation, Spasić says, adding that Tepić thought he was in power and that no one would question him anymore.
Krstic claims that Tepic is known for two things: that he changed five or six games, had public appearances with sensational news to the detriment of the authorities, and it turned out that he extracted information from Miroslav Brkic’s tabloids.
– By spreading false news that the state grows marijuana on military farms, it has positioned itself as a fighter for justice. Now it’s inconvenient for her when she is established to have butter on her head, says Krstić.
– According to him, threats of physical elimination of journalists must be taken seriously.
He adds that it is inadmissible that there are two groups of journalists, one of which is protected as the polar bears.
Milakov stated that he also wrote about the financing of the Filipović gym.
– Marinika Tepic is full of hatred towards all those who succeed. He directed his hatred towards the state and Vučić, who are successful. Not even 20 people arrive at their posts, and she turns off the light so that it is not visible, Milakov says.

Krstić claimed that the folklore is that the opposition complains that there is not enough space in the media.
Spasic believes that the prosecutor should react to this and order the police to investigate everything.
– I would have no mercy on those who complain. The question is whether the person who is supposed to be dealing with media freedoms is at the same time putting pressure on the media. Can an opposition politician behave in this way and ask someone who has been convicted of a crime to remove a journalist from the city? That is a serious threat, says Krstić.
– It is interesting that Marinika Tepić is always looking for topics that represent a state secret. Directly attacks the President and his entourage. She is alone? Of course, no. Someone had to present him with a report from the chicken coop. Someone in the West said that, attack Vučić, and when they attack you, we will say that it is the repression of media freedoms, says Spasić.
He noted that politicians are not financed from their own money, but from state money.
Milakov says that Marinika Tepic, among other things, closed the Novi Sad football club because, according to her, she was too patriotic. During the disclosure of his affairs, as he says, his media house received threats, flowers, wreaths, candles …
– The threats also came during the previous authorities, but never as much as from Marinika Tepic. I only hope that Filipović is the only one he addressed, says the journalist.
He adds that the big problem is still in the judiciary, which has remained the same since the previous authorities. He says that he has already been tried with Filipović, and that he now hopes that the truth will come to light, since Filipović admitted practically everything.
A marketing expert says journalists have the right to investigate privatizations carried out under previous governments. However, he says, the atmosphere has been created that journalists are only those who deal with the current government.
– All those who used to deal with the government, now the opposition, are not journalists. So there are first and second class journalists, just as there are first and second class politicians. This is not OK. As a member of the old government, I hope that all the scandals are revealed and that the politicians are confronted with their past, says Pink’s marketing expert.
Milakov says he is worried about himself, his family, but that nothing will stop him from revealing what Marinika Tepic and all those who led Pancevo and southern Banat did.
– The list is long and I do not expect anyone to react to this issue, not even some journalists’ associations. There is a lot of money behind them, they are nervous and now they have to justify everything they got, and they know from the elections that there will be nothing, says the journalist.
When asked by the host where so much money comes from, Spasić says that there are certain funds from which such activities are financed, and that the money is legally distributed, under the pretext of, for example, conferences.

– In this background of lies that Tepic is forcing, it is obvious that there is interest from outside circles, although she denies it. There certainly are circles within the country, says Spasic.
Milakov says he has been in journalism for 20 years and says he remembers 2012, the case of Tepic and the DS. Then, as he says, he made a material error in the attached file, and then Tepic called him, yelled at him, and promised that when he came to power, he would work on the “market barometer.”
– There was no luck, they did not win – says Milakov.
