Dach disaster in Novi Sad: 15 dead after renovation-corruption in focus!

In a shocking incident that the nation shaked, 11 people were arrested in Serbia after the roof of a newly renovated train station in Novi Sad has collapsed. With this tragic accident, which took place on November 1, 15 people lost their lives, including children and seniors. The anger of the citizens is great and protests against the government and its corruption.

The arrests were ordered by the public prosecutor's office in Novi Sad, who wants to be responsible for the responsible persons for the catastrophic construction. The suspects, whose names are only known for their initials, are suspected of violating public security and having carried out improper construction work. The renovation was carried out by a Serbian-Chinese consortium, and there is contradictory information about whether the roof was part of the renovation project.

protests and political consequences

The citizens are outraged and demand justice. In Belgrade, people demonstrate with red hands who symbolically stand for the blood of the victims and blame the government for the grievances. President Aleksandar Vucic described the protests as "terror" and announced that he defeated "the rackets and bullys". Among those arrested is also Goran Vesic, the former Minister of Building, who had resigned after the incident. However, he claims not to have been arrested, but to voluntarily face the authorities.

The wave of outrage has also led to the claims for withdrawal to Prime Minister Milos Vucevic and the Mayor of Novi Sad. The public requires the disclosure of the contracts with the companies that were responsible for the renovation. The renovation work was completed just a few weeks before the tragic incident, and the citizens are now calling for transparency and responsibility from the authorities.
