✅

When if sveti.pk == request.GET['pk']: is False, you don’t explicitly return anything and the view returns None instead.

To delete a record, you’d need to use Model.delete() method

if sveti.pk == request.GET['pk']:
    sveti.delete()
    return HttpResponse('{"success":true}')
return HttpResponse('{"success":false}')

would remedy both errors, or by returning a 404 response (not found).

However, I don’t see you actually querying for the right Sveti object in your view, perhaps you meant to use the get_object_or_404() function here:

def remove_sveti(request):
    if not request.is_ajax():
        raise Http404
    sveti = get_object_or_404(Sveti, pk=request.GET['pk'])
    sveti.delete()
    return HttpResponse('{"success":true}')

The get_object_or_404() function will raise a Http404 response if the object by that primary key doesn’t exist.
