# Press Council

The press self-regulatory body whose Complaints Commission found in 2025 that Informer and Alo had breached the Code with articles about “Croats at FON” and “terrorists”, and issued Informer a public warning over its campaign against two students. In the case of a journalist whom Kurir branded a liar in 2020, it reached no decision, because seven members voted that the Code had been breached and eight votes were needed.
