(ANSA) - BELGRADE, 20 OTT - Just days before Serbia's general elections, Vladan Djokić, Rector of the University of Belgrade, revealed that spyware was found on his phone. The Rector, who supported student protests and, as a result, the student movement's participation in this Sunday's parliamentary elections (though his own candidature on the movement's list was denied), had the infection confirmed by a joint forensic analysis conducted by the Canadian organisation Citizen Lab and the Serbian NGO SHARE Foundation. According to the BBC's Serbian-language portal and Balkan Insight, Rade Bajić, a chief prosecutor at the Serbian Prosecutor's Office for Organised Crime, received notifications from Apple in August regarding such attacks. Citizen Lab also reports that this case involves Pegasus. Prosecutor Bajić investigated corruption of public officials in Belgrade related to a failed project involving the investment firm Affinity Partners, founded by Jared Kushner, President Donald Trump's son-in-law. The project aimed to create a site dedicated to the tycoon by demolishing the ruins of the Yugoslav General Staff building, which had been bombed by NATO in 1999 and was later left standing as a permanent monument to the "aggression" suffered. The investigation resulted in the indictment of a government minister and at least three other Serbian government officials, who are accused of secretly changing the building's legal status to facilitate its demolition. Furthermore, in recent months, Apple is said to have notified at least 14 activists from the student movement and the opposition of the presence of spyware on their devices. (ANSA).
