The First Basic Pubic Prosecutor’s Office demanded on Friday six-month imprisonment for a Real Madrid Serb soccer player Luka Jovic for violating home isolation while staying in Belgrade in March, during the first wave of the coronavirus epidemic.
Jovic, 22, is charged with ignoring the health warning issued to him at the Belgrade airport on March 14, what, according to the prosecutors, is a crime stipulated by Serbia’s Penal Code.
Jovic was ordered to spend 14 days in home isolation because he came from a country with a high risk of the coronavirus infection, but Real Madrid’s forward went out during that period.
Jovic was reportedly previously offered to pay some 42.500 Euro in humanitarian purposes instead of jail term, but he had refused.
The prosecutors said that nearly 30,000 Euro suggested instead, was not enough and that such an institute was not implemented in Jovic’s case, having in mind his financial situation and the fact he was not detained.
