"There were no irregularities"
Prosecutor of the Supreme Public Prosecutor's Office Branko Stamenković stated to "Vreme" on the day of the election that there were no irregularities, but that there were attempts at obstruction and that a bomb was reported in Katanićeva Street, where the seat of the Belgrade Appeal is located.
"There were all the election places for the Belgrade appeal. Prosecutors from Valjevo, Smederevo, Pančevo came to Belgrade today to vote, and at all levels. And here is the coincidence, that it was reported that the bomb was right in Katanićeva street. I do not believe in those coincidences and I think it was an attempt to obstruct. I can praise the election committees who worked in the building, as well as the president of the Second Basic Court. Everyone continued with the election with utmost composure process", says Stamenković.
There were no objections to the minutes from the elections in the VST.
