In a remark about Serbian Prime Minister Zoran Đinđić 's injured leg , Nikolić said on 28 February 2003 : " If anyone of you , in the following month or two , sees Zoran Đinđić somewhere , tell him that Tito also had a problem with a leg before his death " . Less than two weeks later Đinđić was assassinated in Belgrade . Nikolić later apologized for his statement by saying that he would have never said that had he known what would happen . In contrast to Đinđić , Nikolić repeatedly refused to apologize for stating " I do n't regret that Slavko Curuvija was murdered ” . ( Journalist Slavko Ćuruvija was murdered on 11 April 1999 in front of the door of his building . ) In 2012 Nikolić was accused of buying a master 's degree from the Faculty of Management in Novi Sad without attending a single class or exam . The allegation was based on the fact that his diploma had no stamp and that no other students recalled having seen him attend classes or exams
