Protests return in Serbia / Thousands of people against government pressure on

Several thousand activists from across Serbia joined student protests in the southwest of the country on Sunday, rallying against what they describe as government pressure on state universities.

The demonstration, part of a broader movement confronting political interference in higher education, was the first of its kind in Novi Pazar, a city with a majority Bosnian Muslim population.

It is among many protests organized after the collapse of the roof of a railway station last year in the northern city of Novi Sad, where 16 people died.

Students from Novi Pazar have become famous across the country after walking for days to join mass protests in Novi Sad to mark the first anniversary of the roof collapse on November 1st.

The protest movement, led by students, academics and opposition figures, accuses Serbian President Aleksandar Vu?i? and his populist nationalist party of fostering corruption, poor public services, nepotism and restrictions on media freedom. Vu?i? and his party deny the charges./ CNA
