- summary
- Mayor of Kraljevo publicly named individual student protesters using the authority of elected office, framing protest participation as politically motivated troublemaking rather than civic engagement. The naming functions as political authorization at the local level — signaling to employers, institutions, and security actors that the named individuals are political targets — without taking direct administrative action.

- notes
- TC-02 political authorization at local executive level — extends database pattern from national (PM/President) to municipal. TC-01 narrative seeding: reframes civic protest as political provocation.
