It is incredible what the "Informer" workers managed to say in the morning show and in the articles, when they were dealing with the death of a girl at the Faculty of Philosophy. They prepared a whole turbo mix of pro-regime, tabloid messages - in which the victim and her family are presented to the public without an iota of awareness of their suffering, with all political messages calling for the introduction of forced labor at the "blockade" university.
Informer immediately published photos and videos from the scene of the accident, which, although slightly blurred, show the injured girl, which threatens the dignity of the victim, the privacy of her family and disturbs the public. They also published other personal data that reveal the identity of the victim - her first and last name, a photo of the first page of the index showing her date of birth and the department where she studied, and they quickly politicized the whole event and accused Rector Vladan Đokić of "pushing the girl to her death", along with "mindless blockers".
The government also sent the current head of the Criminal Police Department to the scene Mark Kricka and the prosecutor Nenad Stefanović - hardened opponents of the student struggle devoted to Aleksandar Vučić. Kricak is accused of personally beating and imprisoning students.

Vučićević also read the police report on the girl's injuries and other details inappropriate for the public, claiming that they allegedly came to him through his GOSI service (Informer's spectator-intelligence service).

"The blockaders started cursing, and continued to set fire, shot a man (referring to the incident in front of "Ćaciland" on October 22, ed.), and in the end, they killed the girl," Vučićević said in the live program.

Professor of Philosophy Aleksandar Baucal: The government is trying to abuse the situation
Aleksndar Baucal, a professor at the Faculty of Philosophy in Belgrade, told FoNet today that it is necessary to establish the full truth about the death of the girl whose body was found in front of the institution's building, but he also warns that everything seems as if the government is trying to abuse the situation in order to ruin the faculty's reputation and establish political control over it.
"This can be seen from the fact that it does not deal with the facts, and it seems more and more like some kind of spin rather than a real interest in finding out what happened," Baucal said.
He added that it is in the interest of the public, as well as the family of the victim girl, to find out what actually happened. He adds that the family needs support now.
"A young life was lost under unclear circumstances and we need to find out what actually happened. This also applies to other tragic cases, such as the fall of the canopy in Novi Sad," Baucal said.
