The question from the title, understandable in every respect, was asked by 45-year-old citizen S.Ž. at the end of May at the "Nikola Tesla" airport when, to his astonishment, he saw the Supreme Prosecutor of the Republic alive Zagorka Dolovac.
According to the verdict that was just published by the daily newspaper "Danas", the citizen in a state of sanity asked the supreme public prosecutor, as the most competent to assess the state of his vitality: "Are you still alive?"
Further, according to the judgment of the Third Basic Court in Belgrade, it follows that the "damaged" plaintiff Dolovac "moved away from the scene out of fear and threatened by this behavior of the defendant".
Zagorka Dolovac, definitely alive, therefore resorted to her proven tactic of moving away from the scene whenever someone needed her.
A little chameleon, a little possum
Let's say, when its prosecutors pursue policemen instead of pursuing drug dealers and their protectors from the service. Or when the female prosecutors who have the guts to raise their voices take turns. Or when tenders and elections are stolen, and the prosecution does not see anything controversial in anything.
Zagorka Dolovac's mimicry, her ability to blend into her surroundings like a chameleon, hide in a hole like a mouse or stop breathing like an opossum and pretend to be dead, has become so legendary over the years that mimes and jokes have long been made about whether Zagorka Dolovac is at all alive.
Citizen S.Ž. was justifiably tormented by that question, asked the plaintiff explicitly and politely, and in return - since the "victim" had moved away from the scene - he received a report that he had threatened her with death.
I checked, the media reported on it, and everyone wrote just like that - "death threat". It is now clear from the judgment that apart from that benign question S.Ž. he didn't say anything else to the "damaged".
S.Ž. felt on his own skin that Zagorka Dolovac, if she is not already doing the work of the main prosecutor, knows how to do the work of the "victim", and that the state will not allow such unbearable "threats".
Every citizen is alone.
When the citizen S.Ž. realized that the devil had taken the joke, accepted the "plea" agreement and stuck with nine months of house arrest and a fine of half a million dinars.
Like when, faced with the steel fist of the system, the citizens who showed up at a protest at the City Assembly at the end of December and were accused of "destroying the state order" because of one oyster or even without an oyster, admitted their alleged guilt.
Such chicanery was orchestrated precisely by the prosecutors of Zagorka Dolovac. In this perverse turning of reality upside down, anything can happen if the system favors it, and the citizen will, in the end, be left alone because everyone else has other concerns.
A man will now be detained in his own apartment for nine months because he asked a justified question and thus, as a citizen, expressed a justified criticism of one of the regime's key servants and executors through a joke.
Zagorka Dolovac, you understand, moved away from the scene to continue playing chameleon, mouse and possum, whatever is convenient for her.
