**Belgrade University Rector Summoned by Police**
The head of Belgrade University, Vladan Djokic, has been called to the police for questioning. This move comes as part of an investigation into possible charges of abuse of official position. According to FoNet news agency, Djokic is set to be questioned on Friday.
