Vesić is charged with the previously filed indictment of committing the criminal offense of serious crime against general safety in connection with the criminal offense of causing general danger.

The court's decision, among other things, indicates that on November 27 of last year, the custody of the suspect Vesić was terminated because there is no reasonable suspicion that he committed the criminal offense that is still being charged against him in the indictment.

The court stated that the indictment is now in the phase of examination of its merits in the sense of Article 337 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, and that the public prosecutor's proposal to order custody at this stage of the proceedings, according to the defendant Goran Vesić, remains unclear and unfounded, especially considering that the prosecutor does not state new facts and circumstances that would support his proposal.
