What is the purpose of investigative journalism in Serbia? Journalists discover all kinds of things, but nothing happens. Eventually the politicians sue them. But two investigative journalists tell "Vreme" that there are certainly benefits, even though no text can change society
The progressives and the hostess agency deny that the call center that we have all seen was holding the scams. The anti-corruption agency is also pretending to be silly, and the public seems to expect that as well
After the story about the call center of the Serbian Progressive Party published by the Center for Investigative Journalism (CINS) at the end of November, Transparency Serbia filed a complaint with the Anti-Corruption Agency due to suspicions that this party violated laws. SNS denied these claims, and CINS journalist Ivana Milosavljević told "Vreme" that no one from the Agency even bothered to confirm or deny the allegations she made publicly.
The Serbian Progressive Party did not report any of the costs of the famous call center, even though it had to. President Vučić turned the story of the call center into a joke, the institutions are silent, and the citizens say that the Progressives are constantly calling them
The large call center is located near the Port of Belgrade. From there, more than 100 people call citizens every day and ask them if they will vote for the Serbian Progressive Party.
Among this year's winners is BIRN and Vremena journalist Jelena Zorić
