Earlier this week, Stosic called a news conference to show reporters what he said was evidence of police brutality: a swollen right eye and bruises on his arms, back, and both legs.

U većem delu Srbije će danas pre podne biti pretežno sunčano, toplo, suvo i vetrovito, uz olujnu košavu u Beogradu, na jugu Banata, u Pomoravlju i donjem Podunavlju, a već u poslepodnevnim satima biće kratkotrajne kiše ili pljuskova.
