The head of the Belgrade Police Directorate, Veselin Milic, was arrested on Friday on suspicion of concealing a murder and aiding in the disposal of a victim's body, according to reports in Serbian media citing sources within the interior ministry.
Authorities also arrested another suspect, who is accused of committing the murder, along with three police officers assigned to Milič's personal security.
According to reports, the incident stemmed from a meeting allegedly organized by Milic on May 12th at a restaurant in Belgrade, attended by figures linked to rival criminal groups.
One of the men present was identified as Aleksandar Nesovic, described in Serbian media as a member of the so-called New Belgrade gang.
Reports claim that an argument broke out during the meeting, after which the suspect allegedly shot Nesovic dead.
Milic and his bodyguards are accused of aiding in the removal of the body and of attempting to clear the crime scene of incriminating evidence.
The victim's wife reported him missing the next day, telling police she had last spoken to him on the phone while he was at the restaurant.
Serbian media said forensic investigators later discovered traces of blood belonging to the victim, prompting investigators to uncover the alleged crime and the suspected involvement of the police commander.
The victim's body has not yet been found.
Opposition parties reacted quickly to the arrests, demanding the resignation of Interior Minister Ivica Dacic and the dismissal of Serbia's police chief.
Opposition figures claimed that the political leadership had "handed over the state to organized crime."
Milic previously served as security advisor to Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić between 2018 and 2020.
