Arrests continue in Serbia

Following the arrest of the head of the criminal police on Sunday, November 1st, authorities in Serbia have continued making arrests as the country transitions away from the authoritarian rule of President Aleksandar Vucic. These actions are part of a broader effort to address corruption and consolidate power after Vucic's political decline.

Davor Macura arrested

This Wednesday, Davor Macura, a businessman who owns a bank, 15 companies, and 135 hectares of developable land in Belgrade, was arrested. Macura built his fortune under Vucic's regime, and his arrest signals a shift in the political and economic landscape of Serbia.

Vucic's allies still in control

Despite the recent political changes, Vucic's allies remain in control of key positions during the transition period. This situation is expected to continue until the official handover of power, which is anticipated by mid-December. The transition is marked by uncertainty and ongoing power struggles.

Why regime members are falling

The arrest of high-profile figures like Macura raises questions about why members of the former regime are falling one by one. Analysts suggest that these actions are part of a broader effort to dismantle the structures of corruption and consolidate power under the new administration led by the Student List party.
