 The entire messy affair caused great friction within the Serbian government, wide speculation about corruption, resignation of the Securities Commission chief, and even a police investigation.Another similar, though less spectacular, episode happened with 2005 Divac's attempt to take over the "Večernje novosti", a Serbian high-circulation daily.He made an agreement with small shareholders to take over the company by means of registering a new company with joint capital, which would increase the share capital.
