Delayed the finishing of the trigger on the fall of Canopies – Personal views

To death 16 people and severely injuring one girl from a collaped canopy in Novi Sad, occurred at a private facility of someone who is not close to the top of the authorities, everyone in the responsibility chain would immediately be arrested. The prosecutor would not allow the place to move and significantly change, as soon as the competent construction inspector was first visited by this space after the tragedy, and closed it the next day, calling him a real name – construction site.

That Serbia is a really legal state with the rule of law and division of power, the Supreme Public Prosecutor would address the public and presented the basic directions in which the investigation will take place. For the start of the investigation, it would not be waiting 21 days, which enabled suspected persons to influence evidence and create an atmosphere of their innocence different publicly imposed (Dez) information from the highest places in the country.

Thus, a completely unattended face for investigation – the President of the Republic has already said the first day that the investigation will be conducted by the Novi Sad Prosecutor’s Office, and not the public prosecutor’s office for organized crime. Each day, we listened to the President of the Republic, that the President of the Republic was unemployed, that the canopy was not renovated, that the guise was found, but the procedure will be the guilt of the competent Minister of GV, which It is his friend and he does not leave comrades in a lurch, etc.

The mentioned Minister of Construction, Traffic and Infrastructure, which was still resigning, that act, he used to make public and explain the thesis that for this event and its tragic consequences neither did the ministry do not consider it any responsible.

In the absence of public appearance and deepened information by the Prosecutor’s Office (no public opinion was organized, public opinion that the entire investigation depends solely on what the prosecution focused – preliminary construction expertise. The findings of the expert team was waited after the election of the FTN Dean in Novi Sad, and important aspects of the investigation in this case – the responsibility of officials and cash flows.

All this is the fact and evidence that there was a recently opened-up cellular building with the greatest assessment and security, in the words of the politicians who opened and kept it, in reality, it was a unregistered construction site where there is no responsibility.

In this context, yesterday’s publication of the reluctance of the Multi-Court in Novi Sad and a sturo statement that the court did not act on « media insignificant », is a challenge to ask numerous issues from the point of view of the profession and professions.

The first, it is good that this court body returned the indictment to the investigation into the public prosecutor’s office, for what the professional public, and the signatory of these lines, advocated from the very beginning. However, it had to be done significantly earlier.

Whether any of those who decide to make a consistent in the entire investigation and ten days, and that the indictment must be returned from three days from the delivery of the VJT decision to act on their orders in relation to the time to decide Writes the explanation of the solution?

Calling for the legal deadline referred to in Art. 337 st. 1 The CPC means that the Local Chamber needed to investigate the indictment within 15 days of the deadline for submitting answers to the indictment. This deadline for defendants, and all in custody or the prohibition of leaving the apartment, except for the defendant of his lawyer, because he surrendered the passport all the time), was eight days after the submission of the indictment that everyone should get before or immediately after the new year.

This means that all deadlines for making a decision on the indictment emphasized at the end of January or no later than February of February. As this detention case with several people was necessary and especially urgency in the treatment.

At the beginning of the investigation on the proposal, the Senior Court in Novi Sad is determined by all defendant engineers for several legal bases, and by suspected officials, in addition to the suspect officials, JT and AD Court dutils a measure of banning the apartment. The Court is Mr. V, deciding on the appeal of his defense counsel, enabled the defense from freedom because VJT reportedly did not attach evidence for the established suspicion. New facts and circumstances, according to the court, the prosecutor did not provide the indictment on the occasion of the indictment.

How and why did it act like that? As it is possible for the third-defended ad for an identical description of the execution guilty. The acts and evidence has established doubts, and for its commander of the second-erected GV – is not available? Aren’t your misses more that the Prosecution, if it is unique and independently in handling, and is obviously not the CEO of Public Prosecutor’s Office for Organized Crime (JTOK)?

Due to procrastination to make this decision, the first prosecutor’s office, and then the court, there was that a detention of 10 detained engineers lasted several months without displacement in the proceedings.

There was even a violation of individual process rights. For example, according to one of the defendants on the decision on custody, the Court did not decide within 30 days, so that a new decision on extension of detention was made in the previous decision of the Constitutional Court seriously violating the entity of detention.

VJT in Novi Sad, while a court decision was waiting, which could connect everything, 31.1. announced the announcement that the Corruption Department takes process actions in the direction of « a crime with corrupt elements. » Soon in this case, the Supreme Public Prosecutor also involved him to the jurisdiction of a public prosecutor’s office for organized crime (stream), together with a treaty prosecutor who is without proper experience.

The case with split the competencies of the Prosecution further complicated when the main VJt in Belgrade was referred to in Belgrade Nenad Stefanović in late February. Within the action of the fight against corruption, SK manager was examined by SK Manager of « ZS Infrastructure », as well as members of the Commission for Technical Review of this Station. On the same day, the VJT reacted in Novi Sad informations that they rejected this criminal report 30.12.2024, but the minutes were signed only by the President of the Commission and what it solely refers to the connection of the substation.

The fact that one prosecutor’s office rejects a criminal complaint against some persons, and otherwise against the same suspects, it is initiated by the criminal proceedings, talks about complete remembrance that the Prosecutionary Prosecution (assessment provided Prosecutor JT G. Ilić). On the last day of February, the Supreme Public Prosecutor has passed the decisions authorized by JTOK to assume the treatment of VJT in Belgrade, with the files to deliver without delay.

This order was not prevented by the Second Public Prosecutor VJT in Belgrade to 4.3. inform the public that he had filed an indictment against SK, President and a member of the Technical Receipt Commission, and « in connection with the execution of several criminal offenses with the corrupt element, which had the fall of the canopy at that railway station ».

VJT in Belgrade has filed a decision on the Substitution of the Prosecutor’s Office, which is 4. May, this Commission would not be informed of this decision that an independent survey commission for responsibility for this occasion did not speak at the press conference. In the same day, the Prosecutor Stefanović submitted a disputed indictment in Belgrade in Belgrade – the Corruption Department, which is a new basis for initiating proceedings for a more difficult disciplinary offense.

The public has no information as long as possible before the JTOK, but also which is the position of this body in relation to the CEO, and based on the Supreme Public Prosecutor’s decision, except that they formed a striking group of prosecutors, forensics and associates.

When celebrity and unusual actions, primarily prosecutors in the redistribution of competencies in this case in Belgrade and the Supreme JT, but also the High Court in Novi Sad, in terms of decision-making of the indictment in Novi Sad on finishing, and after each reasonable deadline The confirmation or rejection of the indictment remains to conclude that it all indicates that there are, except for professional, and some other reasons why all these cases are not done in a manner and in the pace according to which they should be done according to the law.

It all has to do with the first, and unfulfilled, requesting students in the blockade, and the Zahevs of the Assembly of the Bar Association of Serbia and civil initiatives Pro vote for the responsibility of the judiciary.
