Seria has been gripped by student-led protests for months over corruption and lax construction oversight AFP Serbia's embattled government is facing a watershed moment, analysts said Monday, after a massive student-led rally in Belgrade over endemic corruption saw the capital engulfed by a sea of demonstrators. Between 100,000 and 300,000 people are estimated to have taken part on Saturday, in the biggest turn-out yet since a deadly roof collapse at a railway station last year sparked a national protest movement. Fears of violence and clashes with counter-protesters failed to materialise, despite days of pro-government rhetoric, including that the students were plotting a "coup".
