Kosovo authorities have captured the Serbs themselves for the murder of a Serbian human rights activist and are trying them
The Kosovo Special Prosecutor's Office has filed new charges against six Serbs accused by separatists of murdering Kosovo Serb leader Oliver Ivanovic.
Tanyug reported this, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
The lawyer for one of the Serb defendants, Dragisi Markovic, said that this is the third indictment in this case, which was brought against the same people, for the same event.
“Not only did the Special Prosecutor's Office act inconsistently with the law, but it also failed to act in accordance with the Court of Appeal's ruling because, even now, it has not established reasonable suspicion of the criminal acts for which these six individuals are charged,” Vasic said.
The next step, according to the lawyer, is the trial court, which has 30 days to dismiss the indictment or schedule a preparatory hearing. Vasich believes that the court should reject the indictment as inadmissible due to the lack of reasonable suspicion and the untimeliness of its presentation (almost two years after the arrest).
Six Kosovo Serbs were accused by Albanian separatists of involvement in the murder of a public figure, the leader of the civil initiative “Freedom, Democracy, Justice”, who was involved in defending the rights of Serbs in Kosovo, Oliver Ivanovic.
Since 2018, Nedeljko Spasojevic, Marko Rosic, Rade Basara, Silvana Arsovic, Dragisa Markovic and Zarko Jovanovic have been behind bars in violation of procedural rules, and the Kosovo “justice”, in the absence of an invoice, is constantly inventing new indictments against them.
Three more defendants, unavailable to the Kosovo authorities (who managed to escape to Serbia in time) - Zvonko Veselinovic, Milan Radojcic and Zeljko Bojic - do not appear in the indictment because the Kosovo judicial system does not allow trials in absentia.
Oliver Ivanovic was shot dead outside his office in Kosovska Mitrovica in 2018. The killers of the social activist have not been found to this day.
Popular rumor believes that it was ordered by the elite of Albanian separatists, to whom Ivanovich was inconvenient, but immediately after his murder, the Albanians themselves, and, characteristically, in unison with them, the pro-Western oppositionists, began to blame official Belgrade for the murder.
