Answering a question from the president of the panel, judge Vesna Kovačević, the witness said that he shot at them from the back seat, behind the passenger, and that he saw it in the rearview mirror.

The defense and the defendant objected to his testimony.

Defendant Miomir Đukić said that it was unnecessary for him to ask questions.

"This is a circus, it's a shame what the witness is saying today," Djukic said.

The defense attorney of the accused Marko Zekić, lawyer Drago Konatar, objected to the witness, pointing out that he is against the material evidence.

"His testimony is unconvincing, illogical and incomplete," objected the defense attorney, and lawyer Stefan Jovanović joined in the remarks.

At the previous hearing held in March, the defendant Miomir Đukić claimed that he was a few kilometers away from the place where the shooting took place, and that he had nothing to do with the event.

In addition to the incident in Berane, in the same court process, the murders of Nemanja Prelević (28) and Danil Peković (20) in Veruša on October 17, 2020, for which Marko Zekić and eight other defendants are accused, are being tried.

The Special State Prosecutor's Office in Podgorica filed an indictment against the eight-member criminal organization of the accused Marko Zekić, who is on the run. In addition to Zekić, Miomir Đukić, Dragan Biletić, Vasilije Đukić, Mirčeta Mihailović, Nenad Milačić, Goran Milašinović, Branislav Ivanović and Dragan Tarić are also accused.

According to the collected evidence, Marko Zekić, Đukić and Mihailović killed Prelević and Peković together on October 17, 2020, in the town of Uvač, with premeditation and prior agreement. Milašinović, Biletić, Ivanović and Miličić assisted in the serious murder of two Podgorica residents by deliberately creating conditions and removing obstacles. The task of part of the group was to monitor the movement of Prelević and Peković in order to determine the most favorable place and time for their liquidation. The trial continues on May 10 with the hearing of witnesses.
