According to an official note by inspector Milenković, he and Aleksandar Papić offered him €100,000 through an intermediary to drop the Jovanjica case, which he denies. He defended Predrag Koluvija, then called Milenković a "narco-boss", and sued journalist Vuk Cvijić, who published the note. Among the attacks on journalists is also his message that journalist Ana Lalić, while she was receiving death threats, should be "put away somewhere in a psychiatric ward".
