NEWS OF THE DAY: The abolition is not only contrary to the law, but also to morality
The Constitutional Judges have postponed yesterday’s assessment of the constitutionality of Article 1 of the Law on Pardoning, which was supposed to clarify whether former President Gjorgje Ivanov could withdraw the abolition.
As TV 24 reported, Judge Osman Kadriu has proposed for the decision-making to be postponed, as there are key differences between the proposals of Judge Darko Kostadinovski, who is now rapporteur for this initiative, and the proposal of Judge Vladimir Stojanovski, who this case was given to last year, but his term ended.
According to Kadriu, Stojanovski’s proposal then was to cancel or terminate disputed Article 11-a, and now Kostadinovski’s proposal is to stop the procedure for this decision. According to him, these are completely opposed proposals and therefore this issue should not be immediately decided upon, but rather should be discussed all over again.
