Prosecutors in Novi Sad indicted 13 people over the deadly collapse of a railway station awning that killed 15, sparking protests and calls for accountability.
Prosecutors in Novi Sad, Serbia, filed an indictment on Monday against 13 people in connection with the collapse of a railway station awning last month that killed 15 and sparked protests.
The concrete awning, part of a recently renovated roof, caved in on Nov. 1, killing 14 and injuring three, one of whom later died. Protesters blamed government corruption and poor construction, which the government denies.
The indictment targets officials, including the former infrastructure minister, his deputy, and the designers and supervisors of the project, for suspected crimes related to general safety and improper construction. The defendants' initials were used due to Serbian law.
In the aftermath, several officials, including Transport Minister Goran Vesic, Trade Minister Tomislav Momirovic, and the head of Serbian Railways, resigned. Vesic, detained by police in early November, was released on 27th of November.
President Aleksandar Vucic stressed that those responsible must face consequences.
