Tens of thousands of protesters led by university students have held a noisy rally outside Serbia's state television headquarters in Belgrade to protest what they called the broadcaster's pro-government bias.

The complainants claim that Vučić previously encouraged motorists to drive through crowds of protesting students.

Tens of thousands of anti-government protesters in Belgrade on Friday stood in silence in front of the state television RTS building for 15 minutes to commemorate victims of a railway station roof collapse for which they blame Serbian authorities.

A dramatic incident occurred in Belgrade when a driver drove into a group of protesting students, seriously injuring a young woman. The driver has been detained, and the prosecutor has charged him with attempted murder.
