Jelena Zorić: Forging signatures is pure organized crime

"I see that the GIK is completely uninterested in this case, no state body such as the Ombudsman, the Commissioner, the Prosecutor's Office advertises itself." I will use all legal means, but I think that judges, trustees and prosecutors should react on their own based on media information, but also to check that their signature is not accidentally forged somewhere," concludes journalist Jelena Zorić.

Perfect witness Srđan Lalić: "They did not react to the blows with the hammer"

Now he speaks publicly about all the crimes he participated in and knows about systematically, meticulously and cold-bloodedly, as if digging a hole for the members of the Belivuk-Miljković clan.
