Serbian Parliament committee chief refuses to discuss shooting

Committee chair Marko Atlagic MP (Serbian Progressive Party – SNS) said that the agenda can’t be expanded because the committee resumed its meeting of May 3 which was interrupted because of the school shooting in Belgrade. He also did not allow a discussion of Education Minister Branko Ruzic’s resignation.

“We won’t analyze the case because there is no need and we have to get the elements from reports by competent bodies,” he said. According to Atlagic, the committee will discuss the mass killings in a Belgrade elementary school and will come up with advisory measures to send to ministries.
