After it was discovered that Aleksandar Erac had been legally sentenced to prison, he resigned. The question is how he could even be a candidate in the elections
Aleksandar Erac, from the Socialist Movement who ran in the local elections in Kraljevo in a coalition with SNS, will not be a councilor in the local assembly after it was discovered that he was legally sentenced to prison.
Predrag Voštinić from the Local Front tells "Vreme" that Erac appeared today at the constituent session of the Kraljevo City Assembly, but that the verification committee proposed rejecting his mandate, and he has since resigned from his position as a member of the council.
Voštinić states that according to their knowledge, Erac was legally sentenced to a prison sentence of 12 months.
However, Voštinić states that Erac could not even be a candidate in the elections.
"He will not be a councilor, but it will not be misled that it is because he was criminally convicted because the City Election Commission declared itself incompetent because it did not determine whether the candidates were criminally convicted, and it had that obligation." In earlier years, we had to prove it ourselves. Now they had to collect such data. "So practically no one established that he was criminally convicted, he passed everything, and practically he was not even allowed to be a candidate in the elections," points out Vošatinić.
Ivan Matović from GG Starosedeoci Kraljevo stated that Erac was legally sentenced to prison for corruption in July.
"He with a final prison sentence, and house arrest and prison terms are included in that, cannot be a councilor according to the law, nor according to the rules of procedure of the city assembly," Matović told N1.
And he also points out that Erac should not have been on the SNS list.
"Because GIK had the obligation to check whether councilors were convicted or criminal proceedings were being conducted ex officio, he could not be a councilor even in the previous convocation, because we had the last session in September, and he was convicted in July," he said. Matovic.
Voštinić also said that Loklani Front cannot claim whether Aleksandar Erac has a nanoleg.
