Šapić, in his capacity as mayor, says that he would send the police to disgruntled workers blocking the highway
Za election of Aleksandar Šapić as mayor of Belgrade 47 and not 57 councilors of the Belgrade Assembly voted, claims the councilor group of the People's Party, announcing that they will file a complaint with the Administrative Court.
As Miloš Pavlović, the head of the councilor group of that party, said at the press conference, the decisions on confirming the mandate and electing the mayor, deputy mayor and members of the City Council were made in violation of the provisions of the Law on Local Elections and without a quorum.
"Article 72 of the Law on Local Elections stipulates that the councilor's mandate begins when the assembly makes a decision on his confirmation, and that the councilor who takes office cannot participate in the vote at the session where his mandate is being confirmed," said Pavlović.
The councilors appealed to the Administrative Court to understand the seriousness of the situation and to make a decision as soon as possible, because city officials sign important decisions, and they would have no legal effect if the election is illegal.
One of the first advertisements of Aleksandar Šapić since he was declared mayor on the 20th, referred to the Fiat workers who blocked the highway and the Gazelle yesterday.
He assessed that closing the road potentially means entering an "anarchistic state", as well as that President Vucic previously made a mistake by allowing citizens dissatisfied with the announcement of the construction of a lithium mine to block the highway in Belgrade "regardless of their number, and 500.000 did not come out." or a million people". He stated that he would "send the police" because of it.
