In the Belgrade neighborhood of Zvezdara, a children's park cost 23 million dinars, which, as councilor Stefan Simić writes for the new issue of the weekly "Vreme", is more expensive than any other park in the city.

If you pass by Šamačka Street in Belgrade settlement Zvezdara, you may notice a children's park that at first glance looks like any other.

There is a slide, swings, swings, carousel - everything a children's park has.

If you look a little closer, you will see that the slide is missing two swings that belong there, and this device was paid more than 7.000 euros, which is a much higher price than the regular one.

What you also won't realize if you just go to the park is that it is more expensive than all other playgrounds like this in Belgrade. He was paid almost 200.000 euros.

Under the slide and all the other devices, a place was left for a tartan base, and not just any tartan, but a tartan paid for four million dinars.

There is also a bench that was paid 95.000 dinars, and its function is not only to sit on, but also to hold the fallen fence.

If you let your child on the swing, you may not be aware that he is playing with a toy that costs almost 2.000 euros.

@stefansimicbg 23 MILLION DINARS FOR A PARK! Šamačka Street on Zvezdara will become known for the most expensive unfinished park in Belgrade. We compared the prices of the furniture in this park with the market prices, robbery is a mild word. This is the best example of how citizens' money is taken and poured into private pockets. This is a job for the prosecution. #White City #zvezdara #Park #assembly #cityofbelgradeassembly #zvezdaramunicipalityassembly #councilman #stefansimic #yourcommittee #freecitizensmovement ♬ Helicopter - Fazlija

Star robbery

About what the park looks like, how much money was invested in it and an example of corruption, Stefan Simić, a member of the Free Citizens Movement in the Belgrade City Assembly, writes in the author's text for the new issue of the weekly "Vreme", which is on newsstands from Thursday, February 20.

"I went to record and show all the public on social networks what a parking lot in Belgrade that cost 23 million dinars looks like. Yes - you read that right. Someone made a good profit on this. And now, unfortunately, that is nothing strange. When you see what kind of machinations happen on a daily basis, this comes to him as a kind of "sicah". But bit by bit, it builds up", writes Simić.

Jelena Baštrica and Mladen Krstić from PSG analyzed item by item and compared the prices of furniture in the park with the market price.

"The worst thing is that there are many bigger examples of theft that the police and the prosecutor's office would have to deal with," writes Simić for the new issue of the weekly "Vreme".

The new issue of the weekly "Vreme" will hit newsstands on Thursday (February 20). You can subscribe to the print or digital edition here.
