In this state of ours, a state of law, as the president told me, I could not prove the truth and justice for 7,5 years, but I believe that now, with the help and with the help of the Lord God, this court will finally make the right decision, he said. Milovan Milivojević, the father of the worker who died in the MB dedicated in 2017, and who has been seeking responsibility for his son's death all these years, reports N1.
A large number of citizens gathered today in front of the Appellate Court in Kragujevac in order to support the Milivojević family, which has been conducting court proceedings for years due to the death of their son in the explosion of the MB factory in Lučani in 2017.
The trial in the Court of Appeal in Kragujevac for the case of the death of two workers in 2017 in MB namenska in Lučani was postponed due to the strike of the Bar Association of Serbia.
This was confirmed by the court panel, which was supposed to open the hearing related to this case today, following the appeal of the defendants Toma Stojić and Vladimir Lončarević.
By the way, hearings in the Appellate Courts are very rare, and according to unofficial information, they complained that Vladimir Lončarević was not the director of the rocket fuel plant at the time of the explosion.
Let us remind you that the Basic Court in Ivanjica sentenced these two executives to three years in prison each, then they appealed, the Court of Appeal accepted the appeal and sent it back for a retrial.
Then the Basic Court in Ivanjica sentenced them again to three years in prison each, and another appeal followed, and that appeal was supposed to be discussed today here in the Court of Appeal in Kragujevac.
"Almost everyone is against me, the whole place, all my colleagues, the whole factory"
A few days before this trial, an invitation to people to come and support Milovan Milivojević and his family, who have been trying to get justice since 2017, when their son Milomir was killed in an explosion, spread on social networks.
"I want to thank you all for coming to support me today." Thank you. And in this struggle of mine, which has been going on for seven years, I was alone, only with my family. And almost everyone is against me, the whole place, all my colleagues, the whole factory. We survived Golgotha, but God saved us. We have come as far as we have, and I hope, and I believe, with the support of good people, students and all of you that I will... That I will succeed in this fight of mine, that I will push through to the end, that I will do what I swore to my dead son, that I will not sell him, that I will... When I failed to save him and save him, that I will fight to the death until I can walk and I will fight," he said.
Milovan said through tears that he was present when his son was killed.
"In this state of ours, a state of law, as the president told me, I could not prove the truth and justice for 7,5 years, unfortunately." But now I hope and believe, with your help and with the help of the Lord God, that this court will finally understand and make a just decision," said this father.
He invited everyone to come and provide support on March 19, at 11 a.m., when a new hearing is scheduled.
"That's the only help I'm looking for, I don't need anything else." If I had this kind of support, if I had a hundred people, me 101, I would have finished this fight long ago... My family and I stayed healthy, alive, whole... We are not healthy, but we stayed well. Once again, let me thank you, greet you, kiss you all and thank you very much," he said.
Milovan Milivojević once again invited the gathered to appear again on March 19 at 11 a.m. when a new main hearing is scheduled.
At that hearing, there should be lawyers, then the defendants, that is, the accused, as well as the families of the dead workers.
