After two mass shootings last week that took 17 lives and injured another 20 people, Serbia has started imposing tough and in some cases controversial restrictive measures, including arrests for social media posts that appear to to advocate violence, a push for more police in schools and even demands for lists of "anti-social" school pupils.

Gojkovic interrupted Prime Minister Ana Brnabic's speech on the election campaign and asked MPs Sasa Radulovic, Branko Stamenkovic and Vojin Biljic of DJB (Dosta je bilo - "It's Enough - Restart") to abide by protective measures and put on masks and gloves that they, like everyone else, could take at the entrance to the building.
