Gjorcevski refused to answer Palevski’s questions, he only said he did not know him
« I have no comment » was the answer to the questions posed by defendant Ljupco Palevski to Vanja’s father, Aleksandar Gjorcevski, who testified today at the Basic Criminal Court Skopje. Gjorcevski only answered Palevski’s first question, regarding whether he heard that he had communication with any member of his family, asking him to no longer answer the questions from Palevski.
– As I have already said, I neither know you nor know you, for the first time you were pointed out at the police station as a monster, I first saw you here in the courtroom, for the first time in life, I have never contacted you, nor do I know a second -hand man who knows you, including my family, and I would like to use it.
The court has decided to continue the investigation, and Alexander responded to every subsequent question from Palevski with « I have no comment ».
Among the questions, there was a question « Have you heard from Vanja’s father, Vanco Lazarov, or any owner of the apartment that he had any problem with me about the housing in question » and « If you and I were in a very reason to force Zorica Gjorgjevska to give money as it is not to give money as it is not to give money, As a legal guardian you will inherit everything, there would be a usefulness because the two children are minor, so is it. «
After a few « I have no comment », Palevski commented that, as he said, « I will stop questions because Gjorcevski is upset », to which Vanja’s father defender said he could continue freely.
– Since the defendant Aleksandar Gjorcevski is excited I will stop the questions. It’s a human relationship. It’s over with me. I do not want to ask a question when I disturb the man I think is unjustly condemned – said Palevski.
Then he asked questions why neither the
Asked « In what time you have sent a message to children to dress because of low temperatures, because deliberately, throughout the investigation, a clock is not used, but only days in general, and it is very important because of the statements made by other defendants, and are the only reasons for you to be accused, so I thought it was important because you were not angry. »
The other defendants and the defense, as well as the court, had no questions about Gjorcevski.
Earlier, Vanja’s father answered questions from the prosecution that was trying to disqualify him. He answered cross -questions related to his life, the disappearance of Vanja and the search for her. He criticized the police, saying he had not seen concrete steps to find Vanja.
