VALJEVO DEPUTY MAYOR APOLOGIZED TO JOURNALIST
Belgrade, December 28, 2012 (Beta) - Valjevo Deputy Mayor Dragoljub Krstic apologized to the editor of Radio Patak Darija Rankovic for insulting her at the last session of the City Assembly.
"I wish to apologize to Radio Patak journalist Darija Rankovic for my reaction at the last session of the City Assembly on December 24, inappropriate for a Deputy Mayor, regardless of the circumstances", said in the public statement sent from the City Administration to media.
Krstic had called the editor of Radio Patak "a scum" and asked for her "removal" from the City Assembly hall, after the remark of the councilor Slobodan Gvozdenovic from the citizens' group "Pobeda", in which Krstic is a member, that the journalist was "distracting him by taking the voice recorder away during his address".
The journalists had left the session of the City Assembly, sending a request for protection to the Mayor Stanko Terzic (SPS), president of the City Assembly Mihailo Jokic (SNS) and higher prosecutor Miodrag Plazinic.
The councilors from DS and LDP had also left the session, while parties in the coalition - SPS, SNS, URS, NS and Movement for Valjevo supported the journalists with their public statements.
