This is the story of one of Europe’s most notorious crime networks and their human slaughterhouse; their alleged ties to Serbia’s elites; and an ingenious takedown by relentless investigators.

Many thanks to Stevan Dojčinović for the valuable insights.

    i can just tell you that the protest that happened a few years ago in serbia is like unexplained imagine you are the president and you bail out prisoners and give them backpacks and things to look like students js so they can blend in and then they go and attack cops so it seems students are doing that

    being bought by a private equity group is so stupid, like their goal is to make more money than you. the only positive side is that you get money, fast.

    Thanks for covering this topic. It means a lot since people of Serbia cant do much against corrupted regime. Although, there are certain mistakes in video – first of all he's guy of interest even before he became president in 2017. Second, we arent pleased to see that you cut Kosovo off the map @3:54, since its not officialy recongized as autonomous country. Yes, 'big boss' literally sold everything including government , police, law and human rights but its still part of Serbia. And kudos for our big balls guy for speaking facts out loud.

    please dont support any of those ai conpanies, they have massive data centers in poorer neighborhoods that literally use all the water so people around it cant even use their sink. Even if its not generating art or videos its still harmfull

    1:51 god, you guys can be so ignoprant, here we go again. USAns assuming that because they cant locate serbia on a map, nobody else can. or is the assumption that only americans watch fern? or visit the internet? why is it always only you…?
