Fatal traffic accident legal proceedings in Serbia

Overview

Legal proceedings are underway regarding separate fatal traffic accidents in Serbia.

In one case, the trial concerning the death of musician Dejan Mitrović, which occurred on the Obrenovac road near Ostružnica, has been postponed to November 4. During recent hearings, the victim’s mother, Marina Mitrović, reported being insulted by the defense attorney and criticized the court for not yet calling the victim’s widow to testify.

In a separate matter, the trial of Nikola Đokić has commenced at the Higher Court in Belgrade. Đokić, a citizen of Bosnia and Herzegovina, is accused of causing a fatal accident in New Belgrade in October 2025 that killed a three-member family. Prosecutors allege Đokić was driving under the influence of alcohol and marijuana when he failed to stop at a red light. Đokić has pleaded guilty, and prosecutors are seeking the maximum prison sentence.
