The Supreme State Prosecutor has not yet made a decision on the proposal of lawyer Damir Lekić to disqualify the prosecutor from the case of those accused of murdering Vidak Vujović, which was the reason for the postponement of the trial of the defendants Dražen P. Vojvodić and Novica G. Đikanović, accused of the brutal murder of Vidak Vujović.

"Today's main hearing before the judge, the president of the panel, Veljko Radovanović, which is being conducted against the defendants Dražen Vojvodić and Novica Đikanović due to the existence of grounds for suspicion that they committed the criminal offense of capital murder to the detriment of the late Vujović, was postponed because, at the previous hearing, I submitted a request for the exemption of the manager of the Higher State Prosecutor's Office of Lepa Medenica. The Supreme State Prosecutor has not yet made a decision, so the case files are still with the Supreme Prosecutor's Office," said lawyer Damir Lekić.

The indictment presented that on March 31, 03, in the town of Šteke, in Podgorica, they killed Vujović Vidak in an insidious and cruel manner, in a way that, according to a previous agreement, they lured the injured party to an uninhabited part of the Šteke settlement, in an inaccessible place. So that the defendant Vojvodić Dražen, using their acquaintance from before, drove him to the scene in a "VW Golf V" vehicle, and when the victim got out of the vehicle, he fired at least four projectiles from a "CZ M2023" pistol in the same direction. of which he was hit by four projectiles. This is because between the four projectiles fired, the injured Vujović Vidak was alive and told the defendant "don't", during which time he suffered severe suffering and severe pain, which the defendant Vojvodić did not do, but continued to fire projectiles at the injured party. During that time, the defendant Đikanović Novica was on the spot and observed everything, after which the defendant Vojvodić fired a projectile that caused fatal injuries to the victim, resulting in his death. After that, together with the defendant Đikanović, he poured gasoline and set fire to the lifeless body of the injured Vujović Vidak, and then they left the scene together. On April 57, 12, the defendant Đikanović Novica, in his family home, in Farmaci, Podgorica, kept seven pieces of pistol ammunition without the approval of the competent authority.

The defendant Vojvodić committed the criminal offense of aggravated murder under Article 144 paragraph 1 point I in connection with Article 23 paragraph 2 of the Criminal Code of Montenegro in conjunction with the criminal offense of illegal possession of weapons and explosive substances under Article 403 paragraph 1 of the Criminal Code of Montenegro, and the defendant Đikanović the crime of aggravated murder from Article 144 paragraph 1 point 1 in connection with Article 23 paragraph 2 of the Criminal Code of Montenegro and the criminal offense of illegal possession of weapons and explosive substances from Article 403 paragraph 1 of the Criminal Code of Montenegro.
