Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of the Interior Ivica Dacic said that the security situation in Serbia is stable, despite numerous internal and external challenges.
Speaking at a session of the Parliamentary Committee for Defense and Internal Affairs, he emphasized that general crime in 2024 is down 45% compared to 2001, the year it reached its historical peak.
According to him, the number of murders and aggravated murders has dropped from 215 in 2001 to just 50 this year – the lowest number in the past 25 years.
"Robberies, thefts, and unauthorized use of vehicles are also at record-low levels. A total of 26 organized criminal groups have been prosecuted, and 164 individuals have been arrested. Domestic violence crimes have dropped by 20%, while the number of rape cases is 3.4 times lower than in 2000," said Minister Dacic.
President of Serbia Aleksandar Vucic stated that an official report from the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) has been received, concluding that the acoustic device owned by Serbian police authorities was not used during the protest held on March 15 in Belgrade.
