Following the 5 August incident, the organisers said in a statement on Saturday that the HTV crew had not applied for accreditation while other reporters did it.
The HTV crew also did not ask statements from the organisers and did not cover the concert by singer Marko Perkovic Thomson, which was the main event of the celebration but they "visited cafes on the fringes of celebrations, in search for compromising elements."
"When they did not manage to find any such elements, they made some efforts to spark incidents with pushing their camera into the face of passers-by, although they were asked by visitors not to film them," reads the statement signed by Friar Ilija Mikulic on behalf of the celebration's organisers.
The statement accuses a part of the media of malicious reporting, adding that some of the media failed to report that tens of thousands attended the concert as well as other sports events and that also dozens of prominent public figures, including Catholic Church bishops, were in Cavoglave on the occasion of Victory Day.
"The intention of those media is clear: to belittle, discredit and ignore this magnificent gathering," reads the statement.
After the HTV crew reported the incident to the police, the Sibenik County police announced charges against some of the trouble-makers in Cavoiglave.
