Serbian President Boris Tadic is facing charges for drinking champagne at a football stadium to mark Serbia's qualification for the 2010 World Cup.
Police asked a magistrate in Belgrade to start misdemeanour proceedings against Mr Tadic and several other top Serbian officials.
The consumption or possession of alcohol is forbidden at Serbia's sports venues in order to prevent violence.
President Tadic has said he is willing to pay a fine if necessary.
