00:00:20Good evening, you are watching N1 news, I am Maja Žeželj, this is the story
00:00:24of the day.
00:00:28Part of the list of pardoned individuals by former President
00:00:31Aleksandar Vučić has been published, among them
00:00:34Dijana Hrkalović, Miloš Pavlović, who is on trial
00:00:38for the attempted murder of Sonja Ponjavić, and many
00:00:41thugs. This has nothing to do with a legal
00:00:45state.
00:00:48And these are the other news topics in
00:00:50the news.
00:00:54Businessman Davor Macura, owner of the closed
00:00:58Alta bank, was arrested for the execution of more than 380
00:01:02million euros from the bank's treasury.
00:01:05He will be brought before the competent prosecutor
00:01:09tomorrow, as we were told in the
00:01:11afternoon.
00:01:14How did Usame Zukorlić's party win 53
00:01:17votes in the repeat elections, when they got none
00:01:21last week? And how did the residents of the village of Glogovica vote
00:01:24for a man they don't even recognize in
00:01:27a picture? Usame Zukorlić. And only Gučeković,
00:01:31good
00:01:31Malović,
00:01:36arrests have also started for vote buying, as
00:01:39well as for false registration of residence in exchange for
00:01:42voting, and what it looked like in
00:01:46prisons, there are people who saved, believing that
00:01:50a day of change would come and as they say, a day
00:01:52of accountability.
00:01:55Overcast, rainy and cold in the coming days, in the mountains may...
00:02:00Snow.
00:02:05More than a month after former Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić
00:02:09announced that on the penultimate day of his mandate he pardoned
00:02:1249 people, we also learned their names,
00:02:16at least a certain number. For now, the High Courts in
00:02:20Novi Sad and
00:02:23Belgrade have published the identity
00:02:25of 23 pardoned persons, as well as the criminal offenses
00:02:29they are charged with. Of these, five are on the list of the
00:02:32Belgrade University,
00:02:35eighteen are on the records
00:02:37of Novi Sad.
00:02:42And that's why we're going to our N1 reporters in Belgrade
00:02:45and Novi Sad. In front of the Palace of Justice is N1 reporter
00:02:49Nenad Nešić, in front of the building of the Novi Sad court
00:02:52is our Ina Džakula. Nenad, what
00:02:55do we know so far, who was pardoned?
00:03:03Well, Maja, the High Court in Belgrade received the list of pardoned individuals from
00:03:07the Ministry of Justice, and I will immediately say at the beginning that the same Ministry
00:03:10of Justice that at the end of September said that it had practically nothing to do with that
00:03:14personal initiative of the former president Aleksandar Vučić,
00:03:18that they don't know who is on the list and that they will not participate in this
00:03:21pardon procedure, however, with a delay of a little over a month,
00:03:25the list with the names of five people arrived. Of these, four
00:03:29people were released from criminal prosecution, and one
00:03:32person from further serving a prison sentence, and somehow
00:03:36immediately two names stand out, Dijana Hrkalović and
00:03:39Marko Pavlović. As for Dijana Hrkalović, we know,
00:03:43she is the former state secretary in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, mandate
00:03:462017-2019, so during the time of Minister
00:03:50Nebojša Stefanović, she was actually criminally prosecuted for the act
00:03:54of influence peddling, more precisely for obstructing numerous police
00:03:58investigations, somehow, first of all, I would like to emphasize the murder
00:04:02of Vlastimir Milošević, that famous murder on the tracks in
00:04:052017, the prosecution sought a prison sentence
00:04:08of five years for her at the beginning of last year, she was indeed sentenced to
00:04:12a prison sentence of 16 months, but the appeal court in the meantime
00:04:16overturned that verdict and ordered a retrial which
00:04:19will definitely not happen. As for Marko Pavlović, we know him
00:04:23as the driver who in January of last year
00:04:262025, drove his
00:04:29car into students in Ruzvaltova Street who at
00:04:32that moment were observing 16 minutes of silence for the victims
00:04:36of the canopy collapse, specifically he hit student
00:04:40Sonja Ponjavić with his car and on that occasion inflicted serious bodily injuries. He was
00:04:43criminally prosecuted for the act of attempted aggravated
00:04:46murder and in just four days a verdict was supposed to be
00:04:50pronounced, so on November 6th, but the verdict
00:04:53will not be pronounced now. In the first reaction to N1 television, Ratko
00:04:57Ponjavić, father of student Sonja Ponjavić. Ponjavić said that this
00:05:01news brought him, I quote, into a state of shock, that he is
00:05:04currently beside himself. As for the others on the list, there is also
00:05:08Dragana Živadinović, former president of the High Court in
00:05:11Niš, she was charged with abuse of official
00:05:14position, forgery of official documents, and was arrested back
00:05:18at the end of 2023. Then Nebojša
00:05:21Đokić who was criminally prosecuted for money laundering,
00:05:24finally Miloš Dugalić, the only one from this
00:05:27list who was serving a prison sentence,
00:05:31so he was pardoned, and he submitted that request for pardon at the end
00:05:35of August, so recently, and that is the list as far as the High Court
00:05:39in Belgrade is concerned, and a specific name from this list.
00:05:42Dijana Hrkalović was commented on by our colleague Miloš Ž Lazić from
00:05:46the Nova.RS portal, here's what he said: This
00:05:50pardon of Dijana Hrkalović is a slap in the face to
00:05:53the state of Serbia, the people of Serbia, and the institutions of Serbia, because
00:05:57the woman was accused of influence peddling, meaning
00:06:01the former state secretary, the former state secretary of
00:06:04the Ministry of Internal Affairs who came there to discipline, that's the beginning
00:06:07of disciplining the police, meaning all these loyalists who surfaced,
00:06:11their avant-garde. Where was Dijana Hrkalović who kicked open
00:06:14doors, meaning she ruled and commanded, staffed the
00:06:18Ministry of Internal Affairs and was involved in some serious criminal acts, meaning where she influenced
00:06:22and you pardon that person, that's
00:06:24a message to all thugs, all
00:06:28pickpockets, all hooligans, feel free to
00:06:31beat, kill, kidnap, your
00:06:34leader is there to protect you, meaning this has nothing to do with a legal
00:06:37state. Now let's go to Novi Sad
00:06:41in front of the court. Here is our Ina
00:06:43Džakula, Ina, more people were pardoned in Novi
00:06:47Sad, we heard, among them are also
00:06:49thugs.
00:06:54That's right, Maja, so, according to the announcement of the High Court
00:06:57in Novi Sad, a total of
00:07:0018 people against whom criminal proceedings were initiated
00:07:03before this court, so Aleksandar Vučić pardoned
00:07:07people before he resigned from
00:07:10the position of president of the republic.
00:07:14And these are the following people, so first there is the prominent SNS
00:07:17activist Gorski Matović who was pardoned for the criminal offense
00:07:21of violent behavior at a public gathering or event, I would
00:07:25remind you, so, it is about a person who participated in
00:07:28the incident from February of this year in front of the Serbian
00:07:32National Theater when citizens and students organized a protest and when
00:07:36students, but many media teams were attacked, besides
00:07:39him, Eles was also pardoned
00:07:43for the criminal offense of receiving bribes, it is actually
00:07:46about an orthopedist from the Clinical Center of Vojvodina who was
00:07:49arrested back in 2020.
00:07:52What is also memorable for the residents of Novi Sad, at least,
00:07:55is the four men who were accused of
00:07:58the Porsche case, as it was called here in Novi Sad.
00:08:01Namely, it is actually about an incident, as early
00:08:05as 2024. At the end of that year, so
00:08:09citizens had an action for... stop Serbia when they
00:08:12stopped, that is, held
00:08:15a commemoration for all those who died in the collapse
00:08:19of the canopy on the road at the intersection near the Futoška market,
00:08:23at that time a Porsche car tried to pass
00:08:26through that gathered group of people, and then
00:08:30four men got out, attacked the citizens and physically
00:08:34assaulted them. All four
00:08:36men were actually accused of the criminal
00:08:40offense of violent behavior in a public group. Two of those
00:08:44four men were also accused of
00:08:47the criminal offense of inflicting serious bodily harm, and one
00:08:51person, in addition to all that, was also accused of the criminal offense
00:08:54of causing general danger. We can say
00:08:58that a group of people that in some way stands out from this list
00:09:01is certainly that Novi Sad twelve, it is about
00:09:05activists who were
00:09:08against whom, let's say, criminal proceedings were initiated for
00:09:11preparing an act against the constitutional order, so, they
00:09:15were suspected, that is, charged with the criminal offense
00:09:19of attacking the constitutional order, violent calling
00:09:22for violent change of the constitution, they were therefore
00:09:25specifically pardoned, I must mention that
00:09:29experts, primarily legal experts, characterized
00:09:32this specific procedure as an attempt
00:09:34to intimidate the public, but also
00:09:38an attempt to intimidate anyone who was a critic of the government.
00:09:42In some way, therefore, to intimidate. Here, then, it is about
00:09:45those activists who are now pardoned.
00:09:48And also, what is mentioned, that is, what
00:09:52extends is that those activists, that is, that it was actually
00:09:55a political persecution, considering that six activists are currently
00:09:59out of the country, that is, they are in exile, therefore, this
00:10:03Novi Sad twelve, I must emphasize, stands out from this
00:10:07list of pardoned people, but overall, therefore, the High Court in
00:10:11Novi Sad announced today. So, after receiving a letter from
00:10:14the ministry, that a total of 18
00:10:18people were pardoned in Novi Sad.
00:10:21Thank you Tina, you heard our Ina Džakula, she reported from Novi
00:10:25Sad. You also heard Nenad Nešić from
00:10:27Belgrade. And about the names of the pardoned in the continuation
00:10:31of the news, I am talking with lawyer Vladica
00:10:35Ilić. Good evening, we heard the names,
00:10:39is there any reason to ask if this is final. You wrote on
00:10:42X that the pardon now,
00:10:46I paraphrase, is not an unlimited legal authority
00:10:49of the president. What does that
00:10:52mean in practice?
00:10:55Good evening, thank you for the invitation, uh, well that means
00:10:58that the president, although he has many
00:11:02different reasons why he could grant a pardon to a person, either in the form
00:11:05of release from punishment or replacement of a sentence with a lighter
00:11:09sentence or in the form of release from criminal prosecution, he still cannot
00:11:13do it for any motives or reasons.
00:11:17In the previous period, I am primarily referring to last
00:11:20year, we heard the president who repeatedly said that he would grant
00:11:24pardons due to GDP,
00:11:27and later because he, as he said, would correct the injustice
00:11:31inflicted by courts and prosecutors, how he would protect
00:11:33the weak from some injustice
00:11:37that is spread by courts and prosecutors
00:11:41throughout Serbia, that he will continue to do so, and we now see that he
00:11:45has indeed continued to do so with his
00:11:48idea. The president, according to the constitution, is not competent to
00:11:51be an instance outside the judicial power, that is, to
00:11:55control and obstruct the work of the judiciary, the prosecution,
00:11:59the court. He was given a pardon as an
00:12:02authority, it is an old institution to in some
00:12:05specific situations, that is, to some people
00:12:09uh, to grant a pardon due to some
00:12:12exceptional reasons that are most often related to some
00:12:15reasons, I don't know, human
00:12:19nature, uh, this, I don't know, due to some
00:12:22serious illness, some exceptional
00:12:25circumstances under which an act was committed when it is accompanied by some, I don't
00:12:28know, personal circumstances such as genuine remorse, some
00:12:32consequences of the act that severely affect the person themselves
00:12:36who is accused or convicted, but
00:12:39a pardon is not given so that the president
00:12:42can release activists of the party
00:12:45of which he was president and whose most prominent figure
00:12:49is to grant a pardon uh
00:12:52uh so that he can in that way show
00:12:56a kind of superiority over the judiciary, so that he can
00:12:59deal with the judiciary, and last year, I say, he very explicitly
00:13:03spoke about his motives for granting those pardons,
00:13:07in my opinion, those motives are contrary to the constitution
00:13:10and in my opinion, I think
00:13:13that it deserved a reaction from the prosecutor's office to investigate
00:13:17whether he, by abusing his official
00:13:21position, committed a criminal offense of abuse of official position.
00:13:25Now, do you think, excuse me for interrupting you, do you think that it
00:13:29can happen? I
00:13:31think it must happen, so the prosecutor's office for organized crime
00:13:35should, in my opinion, since we have a
00:13:38situation where the president has
00:13:42repeatedly given, I don't know the total number anymore, maybe
00:13:46over 60 pardons or
00:13:4950, so
00:13:51it's a pretty interesting thing now,
00:13:55and when you look at the criminal offenses for which he granted
00:13:58pardons to people, now in this third group, but also in the
00:14:01first groups, that is, the second group from last
00:14:05year, those are all criminal offenses of violence,
00:14:08that is, criminal offenses with elements of violence, for such
00:14:11criminal offenses, pardons are prohibited even under international
00:14:14human rights law. We filed two constitutional
00:14:18complaints and two appeals to the European Court of Human Rights on that
00:14:21issue last year, because we believe that the Constitutional
00:14:25Court will not resolve these constitutional complaints efficiently and quickly, and
00:14:29it is also a question of how he is now practically
00:14:32giving cause for new proceedings. So,
00:14:36one question is the constitutional and legal
00:14:39issue of whether there has been a violation of the rights of the injured parties, and I think
00:14:43there has been, and the other question is his criminal liability,
00:14:46not only his, but also the criminal liability
00:14:50of his necessary accomplice, which in this case is the Minister
00:14:53of Justice in the technical mandate, Nenad Vuić, because without the proposal
00:14:57of the Minister of Justice, the President of the Republic cannot grant
00:15:00a pardon in the form of abolition, that is, in the form of release from criminal
00:15:04prosecution. Just, just to go back, while you're talking,
00:15:07to the injured parties, to the case of Sonja Ponjavić,
00:15:11how is that case now, given that a verdict is supposed to
00:15:14be delivered?
00:15:17doneta
00:15:20Uh, the injured party's proxy will be able
00:15:23to appeal the court's decision to discontinue the proceedings due to the pardon,
00:15:26within 30 days, by submitting a written
00:15:30appeal. In that written appeal, after explaining
00:15:33it, reference should be made to the judgments of the European Court
00:15:37and so on, to request a finding of a violation
00:15:41of the procedural aspect of her right from Article perhaps
00:15:4524 of the Constitution and 25. I think that she was
00:15:48that there was that that
00:15:50man was also accused of attempted murder, to
00:15:54request the annulment of the decision, both that court decision that
00:15:58discontinues the proceedings and the pardon decision. The Constitutional Court
00:16:01has the right to annul an individual act that is
00:16:05contrary to the constitution, that is, which violates human or minority rights,
00:16:08that is the authority of the Constitutional Court prescribed by the law on the Constitutional
00:16:12Court, which is now available not only to the proxies
00:16:15of Mrs. Sonja Ponjavić, but also to all those
00:16:19who are essentially harmed by these current acts of pardon,
00:16:22that is, who as injured parties will not be able to
00:16:26satisfy their interests in criminal proceedings and their procedural
00:16:30rights, because the President of the Republic decided
00:16:33to pardon some persons, and as for the criminal liability of the President
00:16:38and the Minister of Justice, the essence here is
00:16:41in the reasons for which those pardons were granted,
00:16:44so a pardon, regardless of the fact that it is a very
00:16:48broad authority, as it is sometimes said, discretionary, it
00:16:51cannot be granted for just any reason and it does not serve to
00:16:55show that the president is the highest
00:16:59authority in the Republic of Serbia, that is not the case, according to
00:17:02the constitution, he cannot control court decisions and place himself in
00:17:06a position to be above the judiciary, he can therefore only in some
00:17:09individual situations when there are some exceptional reasons related
00:17:13to some kind of humanity
00:17:16and compassion, grant pardons, not grant pardons
00:17:20to people who have committed serious crimes, some of them
00:17:23were high-ranking officials,
00:17:25civil servants who committed, who were
00:17:29accused, pardon me, of committing acts
00:17:32against official duty, if I'm not mistaken,
00:17:36I think some of them were convicted at first instance for those acts,
00:17:39so the president cannot just do that
00:17:42and if his motives for granting pardons were
00:17:46bad, if they were such that he would
00:17:50do such a favor to someone, then it
00:17:54can also be criminally relevant, that is,
00:17:57that he and the Minister of Justice are held accountable for abuse of official position.
00:18:01Do you think they can be called, both the former president and
00:18:04the Minister of Justice Vučić and Vujić, to explain
00:18:08all these pardons? Of course, they would have to, because we have,
00:18:11I repeat, not only this group is problematic, but also
00:18:15the group of pardons when the president pardoned
00:18:18his activists from Novi Sad, and then after that the
00:18:22girl who hit a girl with a car in New Belgrade.
00:18:25So what did we have then? We had the president's announcement that
00:18:29there would be pardons, and then the proposal
00:18:32of the Minister of Justice, and then the president's decision, and then
00:18:35you create. You have a situation that
00:18:39uh, frankly, gives reason for serious suspicion that
00:18:42the president had an agreement with the Minister of Justice for it
00:18:46to be carried out. So, when the president
00:18:49announces something in advance, then the Minister of Justice, who is not obliged to
00:18:53listen to the president's wishes or act on
00:18:56his public
00:18:58announcements, submits such a proposal, and then everyone hides,
00:19:02both the Ministry of Justice and the General Secretariat of the President
00:19:06of the Republic, all bodies have hidden from us both last year and this year
00:19:10the explanations of their decisions. So, the proposal for
00:19:14a pardon must be explained. In the General
00:19:17Secretariat of the President of the Republic, there is a pardon commission, which is an advisory
00:19:20body of the President of the Republic that also needs to state
00:19:23its opinion to the president whether he should or should not
00:19:27use that constitutional and legal authority. In the end, it is the president's
00:19:30decision. In the very end, all those people
00:19:34must make their decisions
00:19:38for some reasons that are not contrary to some
00:19:41imperative provisions of the Constitution and the principles of the Constitution on the separation of
00:19:44powers, on the prohibition of conflict of interest. So, here you had a
00:19:48person who was in a state function who releases his party
00:19:51activists, so that is something that is very suspicious from the perspective
00:19:55of violating that constitutional principle and of conflict of interest, separation
00:19:59of powers, and so on. So, these are all questions for the public prosecutor's office for organized
00:20:03crime and this commission of the Supreme Prosecutor's Office. I think they should
00:20:07as soon as possible call those
00:20:09two we mentioned
00:20:13to review all those acts, so both the proposals of the Minister
00:20:16of Justice, but also to see what the pardon commission
00:20:19there, perhaps the pardon commission drew
00:20:23the president's attention to some reasons why a pardon cannot
00:20:27or should not be granted, but he did it despite that. So
00:20:30these are all things that the prosecutor can check, so we will follow up on this
00:20:34topic, Mr. Ilić, thank you very much for
00:20:38speaking for the news. You heard lawyer Vladica
00:20:41Ilić.
00:20:44Now, whether the next news item fell into the background because of all this
00:20:47or not, namely, businessman Davor Macura is now
00:20:50in custody. He is suspected of withdrawing money from the bank's treasury,
00:20:54that is, 45
00:20:57billion dinars, which is more than 380
00:21:00million euros. The Public Prosecutor's Office for Organized Crime
00:21:04confirmed that, along with Macura, the director of the Treasury
00:21:07and Cash Management Department of that bank, GM, and a Treasury
00:21:11Operations Associate, IP, were arrested.
00:21:14Macura is accused of committing the criminal offense of abuse of position
00:21:17by a responsible person, and the other suspects are accused of
00:21:21helping him with that. All of them were detained for up to
00:21:2448 hours.
00:21:28He is charged with abuse of
00:21:32position as a responsible person in that bank,
00:21:36and he will be brought before the competent prosecutor
00:21:39tomorrow, as we were told, in the afternoon, so after
00:21:4312 o'clock. The Prosecutor's Office for Organized
00:21:46Crime, it is competent, given that the investigation is ongoing.
00:21:50I would not
00:21:54give any further information, it's not that I am
00:21:58hiding something, but that's how it is, that's the procedure.
00:22:00And what will happen to those who were
00:22:03harmed by Davor Macura's actions? What about the money
00:22:07of state enterprises and citizens? While
00:22:10waiting for a bankruptcy decision, economists warn that the
00:22:13consequences could affect other companies owned
00:22:17by Macura.
00:22:20While waiting for the commercial court's decision on the bankruptcy of Alta Bank,
00:22:24citizens are waiting for information on when they will be able to withdraw deposits
00:22:27from the bank. The instructions for this, explains the N1
00:22:31interlocutor, will be announced by the Deposit Insurance Agency,
00:22:34which will designate a bank to be the payer within three
00:22:38days of the official bankruptcy. The Deposit Insurance
00:22:41Agency will return up to 50,000 euros
00:22:44to depositors. Everything above that, if someone had, for example,
00:22:4870,000 in savings, the agency will return
00:22:5250,000, and for the remaining 20,000, they will have to wait
00:22:55for collection in the regular, i.e., bankruptcy proceedings
00:22:58of the bankruptcy estate. In addition to citizens, Elektroprivreda Srbije,
00:23:02Telekom, Srbija Gas, Air Serbia Parking service also had accounts
00:23:05in the bank. The list of state-owned companies is long,
00:23:09so it is clear that Alta Bank could only function if it was
00:23:13privileged by the former regime, explains Pavle
00:23:16Petrović, former president of the Fiscal Council. And
00:23:20that's why, he adds, the reaction of the National Bank of Serbia was late. If there were
00:23:24a truly independent governor of the central bank, not
00:23:27a high-ranking official of the Serbian Progressive Party,
00:23:31in the evening, in the morning,
00:23:33uh, an independent person, that is, if there were a truly independent governor of the central
00:23:37bank and vice-governors with him, they would essentially
00:23:41look at what is happening. The essence, according to the economy
00:23:45editor of the weekly Radar, Milan Ćulibrk, is that Davor
00:23:48Macura would have needed at least a century to build the business empire
00:23:52he built in Serbia in just a few years, in the West.
00:23:55There were hundreds of millions of euros
00:23:58of state money from state enterprises, and the question is what will come
00:24:02of it in the end, because now everything depends on how the
00:24:06bankruptcy ends. Let's not forget that the
00:24:09bankruptcy of those four failed banks that were closed back in
00:24:132002 has not yet been completed. Although
00:24:16he believes that the bankruptcy of Alta Bank will not have significant consequences
00:24:20for the Serbian banking system, Petrović cannot say the same for
00:24:23companies also owned by Davor Macura. Economically,
00:24:27a much greater problem, a negative
00:24:31consequence, could affect
00:24:34those chains Mercator, Idea Roda,
00:24:37and that they could end up in a very
00:24:41difficult situation. They could go bankrupt, it is possible
00:24:44that they would go bankrupt. And he does not rule out
00:24:48the possibility that other clientelistic firms, which like
00:24:52Alta Bank in previous years were close to the political
00:24:55and economic state elite, could also go into bankruptcy.
00:24:57Miloš Zekić, N1,
00:25:01Belgrade. In the continuation of the news, about more one
00:25:03arrested.
00:25:07While awaiting a hearing, is Marko Kričak's arrest
00:25:10a crackdown on crime in the police or
00:25:14a confrontation among
00:25:15themselves?
00:25:20We are talking about repeated
00:25:22elections.
00:25:24The Republican Electoral Commission has 96 hours to
00:25:28announce the final results of the elections, and after the repeated
00:25:31elections. After that, the deadlines for the constitution of the new
00:25:34convocation of the National Assembly begin to run.
00:25:37Yesterday, repeated voting was held at 53 polling stations in Serbia
00:25:41for extraordinary parliamentary elections. As the
00:25:44CRTA announced, they brought about a change in the distribution of mandates compared to...
00:25:48RIK's projection after the elections on October 25th.
00:25:51Namely, the list of USAME Zukorlić, SPP Movement for
00:25:54Unification, managed to enter parliament, it will have one parliamentary
00:25:58seat. The student list of students will have, according to the estimate
00:26:02of the CRTA, one mandate less, i.e., a total of
00:26:05140 mandates. The SNS will have 103
00:26:09parliamentary seats, two mandates each, the Alliance of Vojvodina
00:26:12Hungarians, the Albanian Coalition, Rasim Ljajić
00:26:15and the SDA Sandžak. The turnout was
00:26:1844.9% in these repeated
00:26:22elections. And precisely because of this change,
00:26:26we are going to Aleksinac next, because the
00:26:29next story... caught the attention of the Basic Public Prosecutor's Office, which
00:26:33formed a case regarding posts on social networks about alleged
00:26:37vote buying at the polling station in the village of
00:26:41Glogovica. From Zukorlić's team for N1, they claim
00:26:43they were not involved. And what
00:26:46do the citizens in this village say, our
00:26:50reporter Milan Stojanović checked.
00:26:53Quick cash, does that clarify
00:26:55the dilemma of how in the Aleksinac village
00:26:59Glogovica, dozens of those who support the list of national
00:27:02minorities, which never existed there, the opposition warns, not even a week
00:27:06ago, didn't get a single vote, maybe they decided more for him,
00:27:09now they've changed their minds since last time, yes, but
00:27:13there's an option that can't be said,
00:27:17why, well, I can tell you without a microphone,
00:27:20around the village without a microphone, they say that for a vote for Zukorlić's minority
00:27:24list, one could get 2,000 dinars, some say
00:27:28three, as soon as they see a microphone, they
00:27:32shut up, I just looked, what do you say, well
00:27:35nothing, I say, this is a shame, if you believe
00:27:39me honestly, I don't know, may I live, are there any Bosniaks alive here,
00:27:42difficult, difficult, difficult, whoever voted, he
00:27:46knows, whoever sold out, he knows if he voted
00:27:49according to his conscience, voted according to what he was told,
00:27:53I have no idea, everything is obvious, everything is seen, everything
00:27:56is known, what is seen and what is known, from the posted
00:27:59results of the repeated elections at polling station
00:28:0274 in the municipality of Aleksinac, where out of
00:28:06622 registered Glogovica residents with voting
00:28:09rights, only a little more than 220
00:28:13exercised that right in the repeat voting.
00:28:16The SNS wins 109, the student list
00:28:1961, the SPS only one, but the minority list,
00:28:22whose name many here don't know well,
00:28:26even 53. Do you know who
00:28:28this is in the picture? I know who, that's Asim
00:28:32Gajić, someone like Asim Gajić, that should be Hasim
00:28:36Usame Zukorlić, Asame Gučević, yes, good,
00:28:39impossible in a village where there are no
00:28:42Muslims, where there are no sympathizers of this
00:28:45Zukorlić's party, that such a thing should happen, that's why we suspect that there were
00:28:49problems there for the simple reason that Bosniaks
00:28:52had a very small number of votes they needed to
00:28:55win, about 150 votes, so that their second MP could enter
00:28:59parliament, where they could do that, only in places where elections
00:29:02are repeated. The Basic Prosecutor's Office from Aleksinac
00:29:05has formed a case regarding alleged vote buying in that
00:29:09city, and the one from his movement who participated
00:29:12in it, says Zukorlić, will be severely punished,
00:29:16if it is proven. Milan Stojanović, N1
00:29:19Aleksinac. Four people were arrested for
00:29:22allegedly selling and
00:29:25buying votes for the list Aleksandar Vučić
00:29:28United Serbia, announced the Higher Public Prosecutor's Office in Novi
00:29:31Sad, three people admitted to the prosecutor's office
00:29:35to buying votes for the SNS, i.e., that
00:29:38they received 6,000 dinars to circle number
00:29:42one in the elections on October 25th,
00:29:45it is suspected that the suspect K.A. received a sum
00:29:48of 30,000 dinars from the suspect M.J., kept 6,000 dinars
00:29:52for himself as compensation for his vote for
00:29:55list number one, and it is suspected that he... on November 1st, paid
00:29:596,000 dinars in cash to the suspects
00:30:03K.B. and T.J. as compensation for voting for the
00:30:06same list, i.e., list number one, in the same elections.
00:30:09M.J. was detained for up to 48 hours.
00:30:13And these are not all the arrests today. Namely, the Higher Public
00:30:17Prosecutor's Office in Novi Sad announced that six people were arrested on suspicion
00:30:20that, as employees of the municipal administration and the police
00:30:24station of the municipality of Mali Zvornik, they mediated
00:30:27and, for a fee, enabled persons from the territory of
00:30:30Bosnia and Herzegovina to register their residence,
00:30:34in exchange for voting in the elections.
00:30:36There are also grounds to suspect that in April
00:30:40and May 2025, official vehicles of the
00:30:44municipality were used for rides from Mali Zvornik to
00:30:47Belgrade for a stay in
