Press Release No.4

Members of the Protest Board at the School of Mathematics and Natural Sciences conducted a poll among the policemen standing in the cordon in Kolarceva street.

The poll was conducted upon a random sample of 67 policemen from various cordons. The question put to them was: "Do you respect Zoran Sokolovic, the Minister of Internal Affairs?" 29 (43%) answered positively, 6 (9%) stressed their disrespect for Sokolovic, whereas 32 (48%) abstained from expressing their opinion.

Most of the policemen did not express their respect for Minister Sokolovic, by abstaining from stating their opinion, which proves that the regime puts pressure even on its last defence - the police.

We therefore appeal to the policemen, should Minister Sokolovic make an unreasonable decision or command, to express their disrespect for him by refusing to carry out his orders and joining the democratic forces in our society.
