"Many in Serbia blame the collapse on widespread corruption and sloppy work on the railway station building in the city of Novi Sad that was twice renovated in recent years as part of questionable mega projects involving Chinese state companies. Protesters demand that Vucic and those responsible face justice."
"Serbia's popular theatre and movie actors joined the protest, with actor Bane Trifunovic describing Sunday's rally as 'a festival of freedom.'"
"Vucic said he wouldn't budge on opposition demands for a transitional government and accused his opponents of using students to try to seize power. 'We will beat them again,' said Vucic."
"Prosecutors have arrested 13 people over the Novi Sad tragedy, including a government minister whose release later fuelled public scepticism about the honesty of the investigation."
