Prosecutor on Vucic’s accusations: TOK acts in line with Constitution, laws

His statement follows Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic’s announcement of criminal complaints against those who, as he said, “orchestrated the arrests” in the investigation into the canopy collapse in Novi Sad, where former ministers and other public officials were detained.

On November 1, 2024, a concrete canopy at the recently renovated Novi Sad main train station collapsed, killing 16 people and severely injuring one.

Responding to the arrests, Vucic publicly suggested that Prosecutor’s Office for Organized Crime was acting on foreign orders and described the action as politically motivated rather than legally grounded, directing particular criticism at Nenadic.

When asked to comment on these allegations, Nenadic briefly told Danas:

“I don’t comment on politicians’ statements. The Prosecutor’s Office for Organized Crime has acted and will act in line with Serbia’s Constitution and laws.”
