Serbian school attack prosecutions

Entities: Serbia · Belgrade · Miljana Kecmanović · Vladimir Kecmanović

Overview

In early July 2026 Serbian prosecutors indicted four individuals over a schoolyard attack in Novi Sad. Later that month they appealed a lower‑court ruling on the 2023 Belgrade school shooting, seeking the maximum penalties for the shooter’s parents and ordering substantial compensation for victims. The two actions show the authorities’ expanding legal response to school‑related violence in Serbia, encompassing both direct perpetrators and parental accountability, and reflect ongoing public debate over gun access and responsibility.
