Serbia court finds parents of Ribnikar shooter guilty of indirect complicity

The Serbian judicial system has reached a significant legal precedent regarding the mass shooting at the Ribnikar elementary school. In a ruling described as unprecedented, the parents of the minor perpetrator were found guilty of indirect complicity in the tragedy.
