The whole dog-killing case: a timeline of the Kristijan and Kristina affair
From the first clip of an injured dog to a promised counter-lawsuit, we piece the entire Kristijan Golubovic and Kristina Spalevic case into one timeline, day by day.
- On July 25, Kristina Spalevic posted a clip of an injured dog and accused Kristijan Golubovic of allegedly throwing it and breaking its knee.
- On July 26, Filip Car released disturbing footage that allegedly shows a chihuahua being abused, and the same day Zeljko Mitrovic banned both from his channels.
- Kristina claims the dog died from the beating, fifteen minutes after she ran out of the apartment with her baby.
- On July 27, Kristijan went to the police with evidence and announced a counter-lawsuit, claiming he was allegedly set up.
The case that split the region in just three days began on July 25, with a post by Kristina Spalevic on Instagram. She published a clip of an injured dog and accused Kristijan Golubovic of, in her words, throwing the animal and breaking its knee. What looked like another celebrity feud between a couple that had until recently been happy to pose together turned, within hours, into a story the whole region was talking about.
Only a few weeks ago the two were a fresh tabloid item, all shared frames online and publicly declared love. Then everything unraveled, in the worst possible way. Instead of the usual accusations about cheating or money, at the center of this clash stood a helpless animal and claims of abuse that, if confirmed, are far graver than anything the scene is used to sweeping under the rug.
How the case unfolded day by day
The second wave came on July 26. Filip Car, Kristina Spalevic’s former partner, released disturbing footage that allegedly shows a chihuahua being abused in a bathtub. The material spread rapidly from profile to profile, and fresh accusations began circulating alongside it. The same day, the top of the media house reacted. Zeljko Mitrovic, the owner of TV Pink, publicly banned both from his channels without waiting for the outcome of any official check.
Kristina then laid out the hardest part of her account. According to her, the dog died from the beating, just fifteen minutes after she had run out of the apartment with her baby. In line with editorial rules, the baby is not named. Spalevic claims she reported the abuse and handed over the material as evidence, while the public followed all of it in real time, hour by hour.
Will it all end up in court?
The twist came on July 27. Kristijan Golubovic went to the police with what he says is his own evidence and announced a counter-lawsuit, insisting he was set up. He rejects the accusations entirely and claims they are driven by a personal vendetta. With that, the case moved from a celebrity squabble into a field where, in principle at least, the institutions should have the final word.
Another detail entered the story in the meantime. A voice message leaked that Pink presents as proof that Kristina herself had concealed the dog’s death, which further muddied the picture of who is telling the truth. For now, both sides have offered conflicting versions, and no guilt has been established by a final court ruling. What is certain is that the affair set off an avalanche of reactions and pushed the question of how we treat animals back into the spotlight.
The question many are now asking remains: will this case reach a courtroom, or will it, as so many times before, stay at the level of public condemnation and accusations trading blows online?
