September - October 2013

 

EDITOR’S NOTE

By Seška Stanojlović

With this issue printed The Helsinki Charter will be published no longer. As one of longstanding projects of the Helsinki Committee for Human Rights in Serbia, never deviating from its clear-cut editorial policy, the Charter has been issued for almost two decades. We take this opportunity to thank donor organizations, Norwegian and Swedish Helsinki Committees
and their respective governments in the first place, for having recognized the significance of the magazine’s concept for Serbia’s transition and given it their support.

the addiction crisis.
Because we simply cannot live without our daily doses of primitivism. The whole nation would be in the same problem as heroin junkies at rehab. Having lived in insanity for half of a century we got used to our lives. Lies are our truths. Generations and generations believe that what they live...   More >>>

 

Transitional Justice

A BLOODY MODUS
OPERANDI

The state of Serbia continues the state-orchestrated crime through its judiciary, by being silent and by covering up the atrocities committed in the name of citizens who, proud
of their uniformed bandits and desperados, deny the truth, responsibility and justice for the victims.

By Bojan Tončić

The fourth record of the activities of the Serbian military units – the one about the crimes
committed in the zone of responsibility of the 125th Motorized Brigade of the Yugoslav Army - also reveals a series of
shocking testimonies about the ferocious murders and persecution...   More >>>
