Serbian prosecutors have announced the arrest of Momirović and other suspects who are believed to have inflated invoices issued by two Chinese companies involved in the railway station renovation. The corrupt activities allegedly led to a $115.6 million loss in public funds, with the Chinese consortium gaining at least $18.8 million by inflating invoices. These arrests follow indictments from December which included former Minister Goran Vesić for public safety offenses and improper construction work. Serbia’s President Aleksandar Vučić insists on accountability for those involved but faces ongoing mass protests demanding early elections, despite campaigns to deter public demonstrations.
