Student movement warns officials against destroying public records

The Students in Blockade movement has issued a warning to employees at the Republic Fund for Health Insurance (RFZO) and other institutions managing public property. The group stated that the unauthorized destruction, removal, alteration, or concealment of official documentation, including paper records, electronic databases, and archives, could lead to legal and criminal liability.

Students emphasized that personnel must not follow illegal orders or erase traces of their official actions, noting that changes in leadership do not absolve individuals of responsibility for previous decisions.

Additionally, the movement is demanding clarification regarding two advertisements published on October 28 for the long-term lease of business premises in Smederevo, owned by the Smederevo Health Center and the City of Smederevo. The movement raised concerns over high eligibility criteria for potential lessees, which include requirements of owning at least 300 pharmacies, employing 700 pharmacists, generating an annual revenue of at least 50 billion dinars, and having 25 years of experience. They questioned whether these terms restrict competition and prevent the continued operation of existing local pharmacy institutions.
