Justice Ministry wants control of Serbian judiciary
The Justice Ministry wants the government to control the judiciary because they won at elections, the head of the Serbian Judges’ Association warned on Monday.
“The Justice Ministry feels that the executive authorities should control the judiciary under the principle – we won the elections and we can do whatever we want,” association President Dragana Boljevic told a media conference in Belgrade.
She said that there are no guarantees of judiciary independence >> Pročitaj celu vest na sajtu N1 televizija << such as financial independence, freedom of speech and freedom of association for judges in the latest draft amendments to the Constitution.
Boljevic warned that the constitutional amendments allow a five member commission to appoint the members of the country’s High Judiciary Council by majority vote if parliament can’t pass its own majority vote. “That practically means that three people would decide who is on the High Judiciary Council,” she said.
