Darko Lazic Threatens Lawsuit: Don't Mention My Brother

Singer Darko Lazic took to Instagram on September 23 to deny claims made by influencer Kristina Kika Zivkovic, who had appeared on host Jovana Jeremic’s morning show the day before. Kika spoke about the abuse she says she suffered at the hands of her ex-partner, and in the process brought up the name of Darko’s late brother, Dragan.

During that appearance, she said Dragan had been a friend who, while he was alive, protected her and helped her get through the abuse. Darko did not stay silent. He wrote that he only knew Kika from the celebrations of a longtime friend, where she was one of the regular guests, and that he did not want his name linked to a story that, in his words, has nothing to do with his work.

So, because of that, I won’t allow my name to be brought up in any context or mentioned on TV shows, I’m still a singer who sings and entertains people. I’m not a man who has anything to do with crime stories, and I ask you never to mention my name again.

He posted this message on his own profile, noting that he felt obligated to deny all claims tying him to Kristina Kika Zivkovic’s TV appearance. The singer then addressed claims that he had previously had to post something because of threats from a man named Nebojsa. That, he says, is not true, and he announced that if the mentions of him and his brother continue, he will take things a step further and hire a lawyer.

As for the claims that I received threats from Nebojsa and that’s supposedly why I had to post what I posted, that’s one big lie. I would ask Kika to stop mentioning me and my late brother, because it has truly shaken my family too much, otherwise my lawyer will have quite a lot of work to do. That’s all from me, stop bringing my name up, thank you for understanding.

Kika did not respond sharply to Darko’s reaction. On the contrary, she said she holds nothing against him and understands why he spoke out, since, in her words, he too had received threats from her ex-partner.

I don’t hold anything against Darko, I know he also received threats from him, I understand why he put out a denial saying he doesn’t know me. I’m sorry he went through all those threats, I don’t blame him. My ex-partner wants to be famous.

That is what Kristina Kika Zivkovic said, adding in the same appearance that her ex-partner wanted to be famous, which, she claims, is why he tied his name to cases involving people around her.

We previously reported on her account, in which she said she had been handcuffed to a bed while suffering abuse from her ex-partner. Now her name and that of the late Dragan Lazic are part of a story Darko wants to put a stop to. He said that next time he will not respond with a public denial but through a lawyer, if his name and his brother’s name turn up again in anyone’s story.
