The chief public prosecutor of the Higher Public Prosecutor's Office in Belgrade, Nenad Stefanović, pointed out that by reporting corruption, citizens "can influence the detection and prosecution of criminal acts".
"I invite all citizens to submit reports without hesitation to the Special Department for Suppression of Corruption at the Higher Public Prosecutor's Office in Belgrade for corrupt criminal acts, when they see or experience various forms of abuse of their official position or the position of a responsible person, whenever someone asks them for a bribe and other suspicious actions", said the chief public prosecutor of the Higher Public Prosecutor's Office (VJT) in Belgrade Nenad Stefanovic.
In the VJT announcement published on Friday, Stefanović pointed out that by reporting corruption and their active approach and in cooperation with state authorities, citizens "can influence the detection and prosecution of criminal acts, and ultimately the reduction of corruption."
He reminded that the jurisdiction of the Special Department for Suppression of Corruption of the Public Prosecutor's Office in Belgrade also extends to the jurisdiction of the higher public prosecutor's offices in Pančevo, Valjevo and Smederevo.
Stefanović announced that, in addition to the crackdown on classic crime, the year 2025 will also be marked by a visible crackdown on corruption, through the prosecution of crimes under the jurisdiction of this public prosecution.
Stefanović stated that in 2024, the VJT in Belgrade ended "the two most important cases" - "Ribnikar", in which a first-instance conviction was brought against the parents of the boy who committed mass murder and the shooting instructor, and the indictment was filed in the case known as "EPS ” against 10 people for obtaining benefits of 7.5 million dollars.
Stefanović emphasized that the public prosecutor's office's openness to the public is primarily important for citizens' trust in its work, even though it suffers numerous attacks precisely because of this.
"It is true that we have the most effective work results in the Public Prosecutor's Organization, and that is precisely why we are the most attacked by certain interest groups." However, this will not prevent us from achieving even more efficient results in 2025," said Stefanović.
