TC-39 Mass Criminalization of Protest primary; TC-20 Security Apparatus Enforcement secondary. Note: RTRS doxxing (publishing personal data from police sources) also qualifies as TC-16 Confidential Data Leak and Broadcast — retained as TC-39/TC-20 to prioritize governance intent.

Media coordination: Infosrpska (anonymous portal) plants narratives about foreign agents and Army BiH buses; RTRS, SRNA, ATV amplify within minutes.
