Source: POBJEDA / M.J.

The trial of the prominent historian and the professor of the Faculty of Montenegrin language and literature Boban Batricevic was postponed today for March 26 after some 45 minutes of the hearing.

The decision was made by Judge Radenko Bošković, after being estimated that the time was taken to meet the court with the defense of Batrićević, which has 30 pages.

The trial of Batricevic began today at nine o'clock in court for misdemeanors for attitudes on Joaniki and Methodius, which he put out in the column published on the antenna m in August last year

At the beginning of the trial, he said it was not guilty, and not accepting responsibility.

He also pointed out that the request for initiating the Prosecutor's Snezana Šišević is full of mistakes.

In the request for initiating a misdemeanor proceedings, Šišević misreads the title of my column in several places. First, says: "On 11.08.2023, on the portal of the antenna m, published the text 'Popovi church of Serbia in Montenegro do not preach the faith of Christ. They torely Serbian nationalism. They indoctrate. Wider hatred and xenophobia. So they are not pops and monks, they are torocuse and hate preachers "(no point at the end of the sentence). Then, in the explanation of the request states the new title: "On 11.08.2023. Boban Batrićević for the Portal of the 'Antenna M' publicly performed under the title 'Torodniku per methodology and Đaoniki'. "The Prosecutor does not put out the dates and that the sentence does not end in the point of the spelling, the least is disputable. It is disputable as possible as the State Prosecution against me, initiates me misdemeanor proceedings, and the prosecutor who requires it does not state the correct column title. The title, as I said, incorrect in both cases - originally, reads "Taping according to the methodology and Đauniki". In this case, the letter "M" is large, not a little claiming the prosecutor and is not a "methodology", which is ironic, literary playing the methodology as a science - said Batrićević at the trial.

Batrićević also stated that the Prosecutor did not seriously approach the writing of the misdemeanor request.

That she has been a more serious writing of the request, it could easily reveal as the name of Joaniki was the same rhetorical procedure became "đaniki". An alike nelly the Prosecutor is also determined by the publicist genre of my column, which in several places are called different names: Nonje is "text", the Germans "announcement", and in the end, says: "Statement". Nothing today came to hold the spelling class, the study of journalistic genres, nor is it part of the subjects - I just refer to state authorities to accomplish the indictment requirements, which is due to the responsibility towards the work they perform, and what due to the fact that All these documents will once be stored as a material in the state archive of Montenegro. Greota would be that future generations noticed how much the state administration of spectaceousness and clumsy, said Batrićević in defense.

This allegations reacted to the district of Šišović, claiming that an offensive dictionary was used.

The academic rhetoric does not allow an offensive tone - said Šišević.

Batrićević in the defense set out on further states, that the Prosecution puts the fact that, as he claims, in his text.

Here is a specific example: In her request to be misdemeanedly, Mićovic and Ostojic answered questions from the questionnaire, which is absolutely not true. Neither Mićovic nor Ostojic answered the questions "Are peace and forgiveness?"; "Do they call for peace?"; "Do they celebrate or condemn war criminals?", Because no one asked them questions. Personally I would really like it to be - but unfortunately not! Thus, these issues are invented, but their answers are realistic, reconstructed on the basis of their public statements and becemades. That the Prosecutor is an elementary knowledge of literary freedoms, would understand the author's point and gave up a misdemeanor prosecution, or would most seriously write a request because, in the form where he was handed over, he not only is unfounded, inaccurate and out-of-the-counterpoint; The document that reveals new holes and tunnels in the Montenegrin judicial system has already been dilated.

We reminded, the Higher State Prosecutor's Office formed the case last year by Application of the lawyer of Dejan Dragović, filed by Batrićević for the criminal offense to cause national, racial and religious hatred. VDT rejected the application for the criminal offense, but by the Prosecutor's Snezana Šišević Batrićević, however, went heavily on the law and deserved a misdemeanor sentence that he wrote, and Portal antenna m announced on August 11 this year.

Batrićević in Column exhibits the values of the behavior of the Church of Serbia in Montenegro and its local bishops. The Higher State Prosecutor considers that the thesis that the Popovi of the Church of Serbia do not preach the faith of Christ and the argument of such an attitude in the text "Taping per methodology and Đaonik" violated the law and that should be punished.
