{"id":"SRB-024","notes":"THREE-STEP AUTHORIZATION SEQUENCE: (1) Vučić August 17 announces 'record amounts of foreign money' at Međica village; (2) Tabaković August 20 announces 'our investigation has uncovered' Helvetas/Civic Initiatives; (3) Informer broadcasts full doxing special August 20-21. Reuses data from 2020 AMLU 'List' affair — creating false sense of continuity across investigations. 39 organizations and 11 donors publicly named. Most comprehensive financial doxing operation in database.","country":"Serbia","sources":[{"url":null,"citation":"GI CIVICUS Monitor Serbia Jul 27-Sep 21, 2024 (27-5e); GI CIVICUS Monitor Serbia; Civic Initiatives \"Weaponizing Influence\" report, October 2024"}],"summary":"Informer TV airs multi-day prime-time special (August 20-21, 2024) targeting 30+ CSOs and 11 donors including US and UK governments. Editor Vučićević publishes employees' full names, salaries, photos, and bank transactions — data obtainable only unlawfully from AMLU or National Bank. Civic Initiatives specifically doxed with complete transaction lists, staff photos, and false money laundering labeling (legitimate audit payments labeled as laundering). Four graphs presented: environmental NGO funding (Jan 2023–Feb 2024), previous AMLU investigation data (2020–2022 reused), Civic Initiatives transactions (Jan–Aug 2024), and general NGO funding overview. National Bank Governor Tabaković pre-announced 'our investigation has uncovered' the same data one day earlier — confirming coordinated state-media data pipeline. SNS MP Bakarec had named specific projects and NGOs the same day. GONGO 'Transparentnost' appears on TV Pink legitimizing the surveillance framing.","tactics":[{"code":"TC-16","role":"primary","label":"Confidential Data Leak and Broadcast","needs_review":false}],"version":1,"channels":["Tabloid"],"entities":[{"id":891,"name":"Aleksandar Vučić","role":"actor","entity_type":"Senior Official"},{"id":896,"name":"39 CSOs + 11 donors","role":"target","entity_type":"Sector"}],"date_text":"20/08/2024","created_at":"2026-09-24T17:50:55.358311+00:00","escalation":4,"harm_track":"Both","narratives":[{"code":"NF-02","role":"primary","label":"Financial Corruption / Grant Abuse","needs_review":false},{"code":"NF-03","role":"secondary","label":"Financial Corruption / AML Framing","needs_review":false}],"report_ids":[],"signal_ids":["SIG-SRB-024"],"updated_at":"2026-09-24T17:50:55.358311+00:00","occurred_on":"2024-08-20","campaign_ids":["SRB-CAMP-007"],"enabler_type":"","response_ids":[],"trigger_type":"TR-08: Proactive / Ambient","campaign_phase":"Phase 2: Media Execution","civic_response":"","date_precision":"day","enabler_status":"","campaigns_served":[],"consequence_category":"Legal/Administrative + Social Trust Erosion","institutional_consequence":"Data exposure; Donor intimidation; Chilling effect"}
