Kursumlija, March 14, 2013. (B92, Beta) - B92 journalist was held by Kursumlija police for half an hour due to alleged trespassing to land in the woods at the top of the mountain Radan.

Representatives of Kuršumlija Directorate for Construction and Radan Cluster were patrolling the mountains in order to mark the damage to the roads, as part of the preparations for the tourist season, while journalist followed their work. They were approached by Radomir Tijanic from Djake who told them he would break the camera if they did not stop recording.
