Several arrested in Serbia as tensions mount ahead of anti-corruption rally in Belgrade on weekend

BELGRADE: Police in Serbia have arrested several people accused of allegedly plotting to overthrow the government as tensions soared ahead of a major anti-government rally planned this weekend in the capital Belgrade. Police said six were detained on Wednesday evening, suspected of “preparing criminal acts against the constitutional order and security of Serbia” and “calling for violent change of the constitutional order.” At least one other university student was arrested earlier this week accused of preparing “an act of terrorism” based on his private conversations over a mobile phone.
