🪦 Plaque

Lawmakers have amended the Law on Memorials to create a legal path for plaques that were already erected, specifically the Morinju site that remains a source of friction with Croatia. It is a pragmatic solution to a problem of timing: the government is legalizing the history that has already been installed. Those accused in the 2016 ‘State Coup’ case are now seeking damages after a decade that saw them go from facing 70 years in prison to final acquittal. Elsewhere in the capital, MPs are debating how to curb the use of parliamentary immunity, while the Union of Employers has suggested that if the state is to raise the minimum wage, it should also offer subsidies and a moratorium on new taxes to pay for it. The state has seized a bulldozer, trucks, a BMW, and a house from a suspect in a money laundering investigation. Meanwhile, prosecutors have filed an indictment against a man for a triple homicide, and a separate drug abuse case continues in Ulcinj.
