Following the protest series occurring all over Serbia`s major towns and smaller cities over the last two months, and keeping track of all the pressure mechanisms practiced by the state, Civic Initiates has publicly expressed their solidarity with the oppressed citizens. In their statement, they note that so far they are aware of 146 misdemeanor charges filed against citizens who were part of the protests or are known as active members in their communities, across 50 cities in the country. Civic Initiatives is currently raising funds to cover the costs of fines for citizens who have received misdemeanor charges for participating in protests and to provide lawyers for those who want to challenge them in court. The fundraising campaign is available for support through the Civic Initiatives web page. Read more here.
