• Dismissed from his post on 20th January http://bit.ly/yD2T1P
• He, with 25 colleagues signed an appeal for the protection of freedom of thought and expression.
CILIP response to the Serbian Ambassador
• Trustees have written to the Ambassador to ask him to use his influence to reinstate Mr Ugričić.
• CILIP President Phil Bradley said, “This dismissal appears to be politically motivated and a reaction to Mr Ugričić’s public appeal to protect freedom of thought and expression. I am shocked and saddened by this decision. On behalf of all CILIP members I am calling on the Serbian Ambassador to exert his influence and do all he can to reverse the decision.”
