Armin Alibasic, a member of a Wahhabi movement dubbed "Dava Tim Centar" who was arrested on January 13 in Novi Pazar, was preparing a terrorist attack. According to Blic, Alibasic was prevented in this attempt by officers from the Security and Information Agency (BIA) and by the police.

Alibasic spent several hours before being arrested in a village near the Serbian Orthodox Monastery of Djurdjevi Stupovi, where he had been practicing martial arts in previous years, as well as tactical military training, camping and survival.
