Can the prosecution defeat high corruption

It would not be surprising if evidentiary material arrived from European institutions, primarily from the European Prosecutor's Office, which TOK decided not to ignore. If that material has arrived, then it is also a message from the European institutions that something is expected to be done about it. Maybe even a message that the prosecutors will have some kind of political protection", lawyer Vladimir Beljanski tells Vreme. His colleague, lawyer Jovan Rajić continues: that this is not a show directed by Vučić shows the behavior of his media, who have been campaigning against TOK for months and who knew what was coming. Secondly, Vučić sent his personal lawyer Palibrko to defend Momirović and make sure that he does not tell the prosecution anything inappropriate
