Two incidents were reported at polling stations in the Svilajnac municipality, both of them involving men with masks who demanded access to voter registries.

The first incident took place in the village of Roanda where a group of unidentified men walked into the polling station demanding to see the electoral roll. They were ordered out by the polling staff chief following threats and the police were called.

In a second similar incident, a group of six men dressed in black with masks over their faces demanded access to the polling station and threatened staff. They left when the police were called in.

Svilajnac municipal election commission chief Olivera Stanojevic told N1 that none of the men said anything that could help identify them, adding that similar groups were reported at other polling stations in the municipality.
