Joveski: We will take over all SPO cases, the “bombs” will be used as evidence
The process of the Public Prosecutor’s Office of the Republic of Macedonia to take over the cases in the competence of the SPO has started this morning.
“We are taking over the cases that are in court procedure, we are taking over the cases that are in investigative and pre-investigative phase. It is already known that the courts accept that evidence as evidence and we will further use them in the procedure, but I do understand that the defence may have a different view regarding their validity and therefore the courts in the specific process will make appropriate decisions”, said prosecutor Ljubomir Joveski.
The State public prosecutor expects for the Council of public prosecutors to solve the status of the SPO prosecutors as soon as possible.
