# Republic Institute for the Protection of Cultural Monuments

The Institute's director resigned in 2024, saying she had been told to leave if she did not support stripping the General Staff building of its protected status. According to the indictment motion, her successor Goran Vasić drew up a proposal with false content on Selaković's orders, without any conservators, and according to the Prosecutor's Office for Organised Crime he admitted this during questioning; nevertheless, he returned to the post of director in August 2025. Two-thirds of the staff demanded his dismissal, and they called the complaint filed against two prosecution witnesses pressure on witnesses.
