In May 2021, SNS municipal boards began voting on removing Stefanović from the party and state offices.[22]

Controversies

Doctorate controversy

On 1 June 2014, a group of Serbian academics based in the UK published an article claiming that parts of Mr. Stefanović's doctoral dissertation were plagiarised.[23]

In June 2014 the Senate of Megatrend University formed a commission with the agenda of evaluation of merits for initiation of the procedure for his doctorate annulment.[24] The university Senate then adopted a report from the Commission which stated that there were no grounds for initiation of the procedure for the Nebojša Stefanović's doctorate annulment.[25] In August 2014 another independent Commission was formed by the Senate which later unanimously ruled that there were no grounds for initiation of the procedure for Nebojša Stefanović's doctorate annulment.[26]

Krusik arms export scandal

A letter dated 27 April 2017 from Serbian private company GIM, to Serbian state-owned arms company Krušik Valjevo lists the names of three GIM representatives and three Raniad Al Jazira employees who visited the arms factory in order to inspect and accept the ordered weapons. Among the GIM representatives was Branko Stefanovic, Nebojša Stefanovic'a now deceased father.[27][28]

According to documents leaked by whistleblower Aleksandar Obradovic, a Krusik employee, the Nebojša Stefanovic's father Branko Stefanovic was involved in the purchase of mortar shells at privileged prices from Krusik.[29]

In December 2019, then Minister of Defence Aleksandar Vulin said the whistleblower was a spy and that the scandal was an "operation" to attack the Serbian regime, specifically the then Internal Affairs Minister Stefanovic, and ultimately the President of Serbia, Aleksandar Vucic.[30]
