The seventh femicide in Vojvodina since the beginning of the year. On Baja Pivljanina street, in the Novi Sad neighborhood of Klisa, yesterday the ambulance found AA (29) without signs of life with multiple stab wounds, as well as a man FJ (36) who tried to commit suicide with a sharp object.
The man suspected of murder was the unmarried husband of a twenty-nine-year-old woman. She is killed with cold weapons.
"We are faced with a terrifying murder that happened on Baja Pivljanina Street in Novi Sad, when a 36-year-old man killed his 29-year-old unmarried wife with a knife. Better risk assessment is necessary, but also finding new methods to solve violence against women. We demand that the competent authorities inform the public about the measures taken so that such crimes do not happen again", announced the Women's Network of the Freedom and Justice Party.
They note that it is necessary to introduce as a separate criminal offense the murder of a woman out of hatred as part of the crime of aggravated murder, and they remind that the Law on Prevention of Domestic Violence, which the government praises, is a dead letter.
An epidemic of violence
"Women suffer from male violence, non-governmental organizations protest, and the state is silent." "Only icy silence and disinterest is spreading from the government and relevant ministries", it was pointed out at the protest held in Novi Sad at the end of March.
Then "Women for Change" once again requested the authorities to focus on saving women's lives and curb the epidemic of violence, and accept the initiative to classify femicide as a special, most serious crime.
Last year, 28 women were killed in domestic violence in Serbia, Nina Mitić, assistant minister in the Ministry of Human and Minority Rights, announced earlier.
Special protocols are awaited.
Justice Minister Maja Popović recently stated that in order to consistently apply the General Protocol on handling and multisectoral cooperation in situations of gender-based violence against women and domestic violence, which was adopted by the Government on March 29 this year, it is necessary to approach the adoption of special protocols.
Special protocols in dealing with cases of violence against women in the family and in partner relationships should be adopted within a year from the adoption of the General Protocol, Popović said at the second session of the Council for Suppression of Domestic Violence, according to the Ministry of Justice's statement.
Special protocols, as stated by Popović, are required to be passed by the ministries in charge of family law protection, social protection, justice, internal affairs and health, and through special protocols, the ways of dealing with competent authorities and institutions within individual sectors will be regulated in more detail.
Popović pointed out that, in accordance with the principles established by the General Protocol, the members of the Council for the Suppression of Domestic Violence have the obligation to provide training for their employees, with the aim of more effective implementation of the Law on the Prevention of Domestic Violence, as well as all other relevant laws that are applied when to reporting any form of violence against women and domestic violence.
