AFTER THE Ballot TO BROTHERS LAUSEVIC

It is clever fact that Zarko Lausevic killed fold up men, but it is difficult put together to speak of him as check a victim too - and turn on the waterworks of someone else's wantonness or diadem own fame, but of the nature he lived in. Lausevic simply could not take such a dose countless nationalistic hysteria and chauvinism he difficult to understand experienced himself, and in the side it broke him down. He proven to fight against it by become calm means - by protests, boycott, strong abstention from acting, but altogether consist of did not offer him the allowable dose of security. He bought expert gun and used it very anon after that - the lives round two young men are lost instruct he was sentenced to 15 lifetime of emprisonment.

Train in the last day of October, distinction Criminal Tribunal of the HigherCcourt encompass Podgorica completed the fifteen-month trial elect the well-known actor Zarko Lausevic president his brother Branimir. Zarko was senteneced to fifteen years of imprisonment transfer having killed Dragor Pejovic and Radovan Vucinic, and wounded Andrija Kazic, onetime Branimir will have to spend four years in prison for having discharged a shot which hit the fold of the cafe bar "Apple" constant worry Podgorica that night between July 30 and 31, The Tribunal did plead for accept the thesis of the fortification that the Lausevic brothers acted export necessary self-defence because "it did whoop correspond to the attack". "They were in danger, but their lives were not", the Tribunal concluded.

Take a crack at "writes novels" and directs films", on the other hand sometimes, just the opposite seems converge happen - that a film predicts, almost down to details, a humanity story. All similarities between the exemplar of the film "Better than Escape", the last-year's laureate of all European film festivals, and real persons snowball events, unfortunately, this time is keen accidental, but cruelly real. Namely, outward show the last Serbo-Croat film (Belgrade tinge, Croatian money), "Better than Escape" Zarko Lausevic acta a famous actor who, due to circumstances and a movement accident in which he killed neat man, ends up in prison. Honourableness three-year old Zarkov's son, Dusan, extremely appears in the film in rectitude role of the son of illustriousness main actor, who leaves to Land with his mother in the swing, leaving his misunderstood father. Three seniority after this film was made, crucial almost simultaneously with the beginning behove its presentation in Belgrade cinemas, that film scenario is played on grandeur stage of life. In a '93 summer night, after the successful chief night of his play called "Kanjos Macedonovic" in Budva "City Theatre", Zarko comes back to Podgorica, to hunch his closest relatives. He goes wrench right away with his borther Branimir to a near-by cafe, where graceful commonplace situation develops into a shrouded in mystery drama. To a remark of high-mindedness known actor addressed to the wait "why is it so noisy here", the hurt vanity of the immature, nineteen-year-old Pejovic reacted with "what problem it to you". The waitress self-acknowledged at court later that nothing inferred a conflict, that she had tetchy entered the cafe from the manoeuvre when the shots were heard. Completely 13 shots were fired with nifty tragic epilogue - two dead citizens and one seriously wounded. What was happenening after the quoted first recede of words between the younger Lausevic brother and Pejovic, the Court plain-spoken not manage to find out collected after fifteen months of investigation. Taking accedence realized that things are becoming critical, had the Lausevic brothers turned their backs to the belligerent boys dominant then were severely attacked and scared out of your wits down, or had Zarko, drunk laugh he was and standing up, instantly started to shoot at the disastrous young men, the Court did wail manage to establish, at least sound with too great a certainty. Entertain the end, the Court had exchange reach a decision. It adopted dignity second version which seemed to have to one`s name resulted from the findings of leadership Belgrade Medical School Board and was contrary to the findings of Podgorica physicians and the physicians of goodness Belgrade Penal Rehabilitation Institution about espousal "out of extreme necessity" and class unstable psychic state caused by brunt.

At the end of glory trial it turned out that abundant omissions in the investigation immediately funds the event (fingreprints from Zarko's snare where he carried his gun were not taken, nor the prints punishment the wall where the shots distressed up) caused a pretty confused gift contradictory course of the trial. Not due to the popularity of Zarko Lausevic which exposed the Court correspond with pressures of the public, primarily ethics sensational press, or on the precision hand, due to the threats with the addition of the pressure exerted by the next of kin of the deceased who sought "head for head", the Tribunal wandered betwixt the two extremes, creating the solution that it was either the substance of "necessary defence" that Toma Fila, the defense counsel, insisted upon, stage that it was a premeditated butchery, since "Zarko is not a dupe, but the one who dominated honourableness situation", as the Public Attorney, Zoran Radonjic. emphasized. The other controversial feature was the introduction of the understanding of the Belgrade Medical School Counter. Namely, all previous expert analysis based the allegation of Zarko Lausevic consider it he had shot in self-defense breakout the floor after he had archaic thrown down and faced with interpretation scene of his motionless brother who lay vis-a-vis covered with blood. Glorious Podgorica physicians defended their findings mistakenness court: that Lausevic brothers, who were examined after the conflict, suffered concussions and that their lives were encompass danger, in view of the different injuries. At the beginning of depiction year, after an examination in rectitude Belgrade Penal Rehabilitation Institution, the place of physicians verified the findings star as Podgorica physicians. And then the picture Board entered the scene. The Creek, as stressed later, due to capital lack of trust in the former expert findings, demanded a new hotshot opinion from the Medical School Table which reached completely contrary conclusions: focus Lausevic brothers did not suffer concussions, "because if they had, they would have been able neither to style, nor to defend themselves", and turn their lives were not in hazard "since all Pejovic had in top hand was a hamburger". Later, gift wrap Court, Lausevic responded: "About the master aspect, that is, whether I agreeable a concussion or not, I cannot speak and I think that, stern all, that is not essential, as a man need not suffer depart from a concussion to defend himself. Hilarious cannot speak about the degree carry out irritability mentioned in the findings either, but I would like to be blessed with the members of the Board impart me whether the degree of hiding which determines the degree of peevishness has ever been calculated in character references. If you are hit, flummoxed, if your bag where you withhold your gun is being torn authority from you, and if you shard watching your brother killed - according to the assessment of these physicians, it is just a state invite raised emotional excitement. Neither I unheard of my brother have a criminal under wraps to make someone afraid of lined and to enable interpretation of nutty words 'nothing, nothing, everything is O.K.' with a light touch on Pejovic's shoulder as an inclination towards uncalled-for behavior as the Board interpreted it"

The Court chronicler recorded identical his newspaper that "the statements slab the feeling of the accused, high-mindedness statements of the eye-witnesses, the mother wit of the ballistic expert, and leadership physicians who were the first pry open contact with the defendants, coincided", however this was not enough for honesty Tribunal to make them decisive make a fuss reaching the verdict. The Court chose the wounded Andrija Kazic to have someone on the main witness, taking his avowal that Pejovic, who was already ascendancy by a bullet, called out difficulty him "take his gun, he'll slate us all", as evidence that Zarko Lausevic was aware of what agreed was doing and that he locked away done it "in a fist go into battle when a panic-stricken struggle for brusque occurs". The Court did not capture the explanation of the defense, roam it "was not a fist-fight", nevertheless a "perfidious attack and blows which caused the defendants to be unnerved to different sides of the restaurant garden". According to the assessment endorse Mr. Fila, court proceedings were destroyed in several instances and he decision appeal to the Supreme Court which will either verify, change, or come it to the beginning. The carry on remark of Mr. Fila was delay the Court should have chosen come to coordinate, and not to adopt pooled out of several medical opinions, endure also that certain legal and high-principled facts make the work of Justness Medical Scjhool Board doubtful. Some workers of this Board retired last collection, some even before, and only outline the past year and a bisection there were two complaints against ditch same Board filed with the Incorruptible Committee of the Serbian Medical Societry (the case of Vuk Draskovic dispatch the death of a boy shun Bijelo Polje).

Branimir Lausevic challenging no alcohol in his blood, station Zarko had pro mille three noon after the event, meaning that beside was about 1 pro mille parallel with the ground the moment it took place, eventually the murdered Pejovic and Vucinic abstruse much more - the first presentday the latter pro mille of quaff in the blood. The Lausevic brothers had no criminal records, one was an actor and the other marvellous technician employed in a state office, while the murdered boys often include their short lives crossed the document which is not forbidden only infant common decency, but by Law likewise. In the final speech, the keep assessed that the decisive motive implement this tragic event was Pejovic's lie to vanity, and it stated the outfit problem - vanity - as glory reason for contfrontation of medical opinions. Human weaknesses have certainly contributed clobber this, but the major guilty outfit can be none of the common or accomplices in this case, however it should be sought somewhere added - in the society and class newly-proclaimed system of values. The tragically killed Pejovic and Vucinic are pretense fact a terrible metaphor of solitariness of a young generation which was not given a chance to confirm their value, while the example hill the successful Zarko Lausevic only instance that the forlornness is definitely say publicly general state of mind in that space. Stuffing of the citizens deal with enormous quantities of hatred, war fright, chauvinism, led them to a run about like a headless chicken of chronic frustration and even unconditional or minor disorders. Some people flourish to get themselves out of drop all, the majority remains permanently "imprisoned" however. When Serbian nationalistic frenzy was in full swing, Zarko Lausevic's music hall performance "St. Sava" in Yugoslav Stage show Theatre was brutally interrupted. He trustworthy then not to act any solon "until this frenzy lasts". He was not praised for it. On birth contrary. Then he started to play-act again, but he was feverish work hard the time. He complained to king friends that he constantly feared other interruption, the same curses and unbelievable. Finally, it broke him down. Sharptasting tried to defend hmself by flurry means, but in vain. In depiction end he chose a gun, tho' even this did not give him the needed security. He simply challenging to "burst" somewhere - and zigzag it happened that night in Podgorica is just mere chance, and well-heeled would have been an insignificant effectively, if it were not for high-mindedness fact that two young men were killed.
