In a dramatic blow to the integrity of Serbia’s elite police units, four members of the notorious Interventna Jedinica 92 (92nd Intervention Unit)—including its top-tier commander and assistant commander—were arrested on June 10, 2026.
The anti-corruption raid, orchestrated by the Sector for Internal Control (SUK) under the direction of the Higher Public Prosecutor’s Office in Belgrade, exposes a deep-seated institutional conspiracy. The police brass is accused of actively covering up an active-shooter incident inside a crowded restaurant to protect a dangerous criminal actor who went on to commit a gruesome murder just six months later.
The Breakdown of Charges & Arrests
The Belgrade Higher Public Prosecutor’s Office released the specific legal classifications for the detained individuals, revealing how deep the corruption ran within the unit’s local leadership:
| Defendant | Official Position | Primary Criminal Charge |
| D. N. | Commander, Interventna Jedinica 92 | Influence Peddling (Trgovina uticajem) |
| J. S. | Assistant Commander, Interventna Jedinica 92 | Influence Peddling (Trgovina uticajem) |
| N. S. | Team Leader, Interventna Jedinica 92 | Abuse of Office (Zloupotreba službenog položaja) |
| N. K. | Team Leader, Interventna Jedinica 92 | Abuse of Office (Zloupotreba službenog položaja) |
| D. Ž. | Director, “Steak and Wine Bar” | Concealment & Failure to Report a Crime |
The Genesis: The Autokomanda Cover-Up
The roots of the conspiracy trace back to November 5, 2025, inside the “Steak and Wine Bar” restaurant in Belgrade’s Autokomanda neighborhood.
According to investigative files, a volatile confrontation erupted between Saša Vuković (known as “Boske”) and Miloš Nilović (known as “Runjo”), a high-profile figure heavily documented by intelligence agencies for his deep operational links to the ultra-violent Škaljari Organized Crime Clan.
During the heated argument, Vuković pulled out a handgun in a dining room packed with civilian guests and opened fire. While miraculously no one was injured by the gunfire, the response by the arriving Interventna Jedinica 92 team was entirely compromised.
Anatomy of a Cover-Up (November 2025)
├── Gunman (Vuković) fires weapon inside packed Steak & Wine Bar
├── Unit Commanders intervene to bypass standard crime scene processing
├── Call placed to Voždovac Police chief framing the event as a "simple bar brawl"
└── Restaurant Director wipes CCTV digital hard drives before handing over hardware
Instead of securing the perimeter, preserving ballistics evidence, and notifying the duty prosecutor, the unit’s commander, D. N., directly bypassed standard operating procedures. He called the chief of the Voždovac Police Station, falsely claiming that the disturbance was a “simple pub brawl where two guys just threw punches,” explicitly concealing the deployment of firearms.
Simultaneously, the restaurant’s director, D. Ž., systematically deleted the security camera footage before surrendering the digital video recorder (DVR) unit to officers with a falsified property receipt.
The Deadly Cost of Impunity: The Senjak Murder
By burying the Autokomanda shooting, the corrupt law enforcement officers allowed a volatile, armed felon to remain on Belgrade’s streets without a criminal record or tracking.
The consequences of that protection turned fatal on May 12, 2026. Vuković is currently the primary suspect in a brutal execution inside a restaurant in Belgrade’s upscale Senjak district.
The Prosecution’s Timeline of Violence:
- November 5, 2025: Vuković opens fire at Autokomanda; Interventna 92 leadership fabricates a cover story to drop potential charges of causing public danger and illegal firearms possession.
- May 12, 2026: Free on the streets, Vuković guns down victim Aleksandar Nešović (known as “Baja”) inside a Senjak establishment.
- May 14, 2026: Vuković is caught and placed in judicial detention after investigators uncover Nešović’s missing body stuffed inside a plastic barrel and buried in a hidden grave near Jarkovačko Lake.
The fact that a homicide could have likely been prevented had the 92nd Unit commanders processed the suspect six months prior has sent shockwaves through the Ministry of Internal Affairs (MUP). All five suspects are being held under a 48-hour police detention order pending their formal arraignment before the Special Department for the Suppression of Corruption.
