The State Prosecutor's Office is unquestionably determined to implement the standards of the European Court of Human Rights, both through the execution of the Court's decisions relating to the State Prosecutor's previous actions, and through the establishment of standards and clear procedures for dealing with all future cases, said the Supreme State Prosecutor (SSP) Milorad Marković.

The institution headed by Marković announced that he met with the president and vice-president of the European Court in Strasbourg, Marko Bošnjak and Ivana Jelić, the Supreme State Prosecutor's Office announced.

"The State Prosecutor's Office of Montenegro is committed to actively implementing the decisions of the European Court of Human Rights," Marković emphasized during the meeting held in Podgorica.

Bošnjak, as announced by the VDT, welcomed the determination of the Supreme State Prosecutor to raise the standards of state prosecutors' offices when it comes to the effectiveness of investigations and respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms through binding instructions, in accordance with the practice of the European Court of Human Rights, emphasizing that he is encouraged by the VDT's proactivity.

Marković reportedly informed his interlocutors that a Working Team for monitoring the practice of the European Court of Human Rights and the European Court of Justice has been formed in the Supreme State Prosecutor's Office.

In this way, conditions have been created for all state prosecutors to be familiar with the practice of the European Court in Strasbourg in order to apply defined standards in their actions and daily work, the State Prosecutor's Office stated.

"The meeting with the President and Vice-President of the European Court of Human Rights was also attended by Deputy Supreme State Prosecutor Jelena Đaletić and Chief Special Prosecutor Vladimir Novović," the VDT said.
