Although Stefan Isakov (23) claimed the opposite, the findings of the DNA expertise of the Forensic Center showed that on August 18 last year he was driving the car at the time of the traffic accident, in which his passenger was killed Nenad Lainović (23)

That finding was read yesterday in the High Court in Bijelo Polje, in the continuation of the trial of Isakov from Mojkovac, who is responsible for the criminal offense of "serious offenses against the safety of public traffic".

Isakov testified earlier at the hearing that he was not driving the vehicle, but that one route was driven by the now deceased Lainović, and that she was driving the vehicle at the time of the accident Ana Kosanović.

In a statement in the Basic State Prosecutor's Office, Isakov claimed that "Nenad sat in the driver's seat and Ana in the passenger seat, and that he stayed behind and does not remember anything."

During the search, however, he remembered that at one point Ana took over the driving of the vehicle, and he justified the differences in his statements by saying that he remembered later events, reminding that he himself had suffered injuries in the form of a concussion.

Ana Kosanović previously denied his allegations that she was driving the vehicle at the time of the accident in Mojkovac, claiming that Isakov was behind the wheel.

Father of the late Nenad, Darko Lainović said that after the accident, he found his son lying on the ground about five or six meters from the car and the passenger door, and that he noticed the accused Stefan about 150 meters from the vehicle, walking away from the scene.

According to the indictment, on August 18 of last year, 35 minutes after midnight, in the town of Gornja polje in Mojkovac, Isakov drove a "Golf" vehicle from Mojkovac towards Đurđevića Tara, without a driver's license and passing a driving test.

According to the prosecutor's document, he was traveling at an illegal speed of 103 kilometers per hour, which caused the vehicle to swerve to the left and cross the road to the top of the slope, from where the vehicle was rejected.

On that occasion, passenger Nenad Lainović was killed, while Ana Kosanović suffered particularly serious injuries.

Prosecutor Vladan Đalović said that the report on the DNA expertise made by the senior police inspector Jelena Jovanovic fully confirms Ana Kosanović's allegations - that she did not drive the vehicle, but at the same time denies the accused Isakov, because the marks on the steering wheel, shifter and door handle indicate the presence of biological traces whose donor is Isakov, while her tags are not.

In the opinion of the traffic expert Milenka Čabarkape it was found that Isakov was driving at a speed of 103 kilometers, which is about 4 kilometers per hour faster than the speed limit.

In the autopsy report, the now deceased doctor Dragana Cukic it is stated that the death of Nenad Lainović "occurred as a result of damage to life-important centers in the cervical cord and in the cerebellum, due to fractures of the neck vertebrae and the skull", and that the injuries were caused by the "blunt effect of a swung mechanical tool".

According to the expert of forensic medicine, Dr. Ana Kosanović was injured Nemanja Radojevic, suffered particularly serious, life-threatening injuries - fracture of the occipital bone, contusion of the cortex of the cerebrum, fractures of the sternum, serial fracture of several ribs, 11th thoracic vertebra, contusion of the lung, while Isakov received serious bodily injuries - concussion and contusion of the lung.

The trial continues on January 19.
