The Vice President of the Government of Montenegro and the Minister of Economic Development Nik Đeljošaj asked the Judicial Council to answer several questions.

"Since the Judicial Council reacted publicly in relation to my earlier publication, I feel the need to respond so that the public is properly informed. Therefore, I would like to ask, before the continuation of the further discussion, that the Judicial Council answer me a few questions:

1. Is it allowed for a judge to insult the parties in the proceedings on a national basis?

2. Is it allowed for the judge to announce "you can appeal my verdict" before presenting the evidence?

3. Is it allowed for journalists to knowingly misinform the public by presenting data on the number of postponed hearings and blaming me, while hiding data on the postponement of hearings due to a change of judge and non-appearance of the prosecutor?

4. Is it allowed to make fun of the judge's way of speaking in the courtroom?", pointed out Đeljošaj in a statement delivered by the Albanian Alternative (AA), of which he is the president.

He added that in order to preserve the system, he will not list further.

"Since all of the above happened in the proceedings in which I am a party, I concluded that this attitude and behavior can have only two reasons, namely corruption or hatred. I fully support the independence and autonomy of the judiciary. However, courts and judges do not take such a position they are allowed to abuse it, but use it for the progress of the state and the realization of justice," said Đeljošaj.

He said that since he made accusations about the judge's bias, he is using the opportunity for the Judicial Council to ask whether Judge Becić was included in the famous correspondence about fixing judges?

"We must do everything to have and we will have honest judges who, first of all, have a basic education and work according to the Constitution and the law. It will never be in Montenegro again that prosecutors and judges are for political purposes, never. I just want justice, an educated judge, who "He is not finished with the correspondence about the framed cases and who respects the Constitution and the law. If and when that happens, I will request the lifting of immunity myself," said Đeljošaj.

The Assembly decides on the removal of the immunity of deputies and members of the Government at the request of the competent authorities, regardless of whether the deputy or member of the Government agrees or opposes it.

"And I give full support to the Judicial Council, not to defend injustice, but to organize the judiciary at the highest European level. You will have a lot of work to do and I hope you will succeed," Đeljošaj concluded.

The Judicial Council announced tonight that it strongly judges the repeated and inappropriate attacks by Đeljošaj on judge Ivana Becić, and that Đeljošaj threatens the independence of the judiciary.

Before that, Đeljošaj again accused the prosecutor Ivana Petrušić, Becić and Television Vijesti journalist Danilo Ajković of settling accounts with him and of being corrupt.
