As we learn, Saban Saulic will be buried on Friday, in the Alley of Meritorious Citizens at the New Cemetery in Belgrade.

Although Saban was born in a Muslim family, in this spirit, he will not be buried under these customs, but also by no other. As we learn, a civil burial will be performed, with no priests. 

- Saban was born in a Muslim family, educated in that spirit, but he will not be buried in that way. Saban grew up in the SFRY and, despite the family, he was never religiously defined. According to Muslim rituals, he did not even enter the faith, let's not go too much into details here, we know what it means- said our source close to the family Saulic.

- A civic funeral will be held, and the priest won't be present, because he personally didn't belong to any religion. Sapan respected every religion, but he didn't confess to anyone. He never entered a religious building. The organized religion was a foreign thing for him. That was the man who never looked who was what religion, faith... The only thing that was important for him was, what kind of a man someone was - the source explained for portal Telegraf.rs.

As we found out, the commemoration will be held on Friday, before the funeral.
