Vrbas civic group reports criminal complaint over suspected vote buying

Lokalna alternativa says it submitted a criminal complaint to prosecutors in Vrbas and Novi Sad over alleged vote buying in the parliamentary election.

The Vrbas civic association Lokalna alternativa says it submitted a criminal complaint to prosecutors in Vrbas and Novi Sad over suspected vote buying during the parliamentary election.

Background and next steps

The group says residents contacted it about Viber messages allegedly offering money in return for photographs of a completed ballot paper and identity document. It says relevant material was supplied to prosecutors.

The association also offered its own estimate of the possible scale of irregularities. That estimate has not been independently verified, and there is no final court judgment establishing the guilt of the people or political organisation named in the allegations.

What happens next depends on the official examination of evidence, witness interviews and prosecutorial decisions. This publication will not reproduce unverified voter lists or material exposing voters’ personal information.
