“Someone must have slandered Josef K., for one morning, without having done anything truly wrong, he was arrested.”
Franz Kafka, “The Trial”
MIRJANA SORO
I have known Mr. Tomislav Ðorđević since 1993, as I represented YUCO group which consisted of 15 companies for five years.
That was the time of the first attack on Tomislav Ðorđević, as proceedings were initiated before the judicial authorities by the financial inspectorate and the foreign exchange inspectorate.
The second attack was during the bombing, when Yuco Bank ad Novi Sad (now Credit Agricole Bank) and some other private banks were accused of jeopardizing the monetary system.
All these cases were completed following long-running court proceedings, but no illegality was established in the work of Tomislav Ðorđević and the other suspects.
The media would inform the public about the initiation of proceedings, but would never inform on the outcome of the proceedings.
I am aware that Tomislav Ðorđević has been in custody for several months, that an indictment has been issued against him, and that the other members of the “criminal group led by Tomislav Đorđević” have been released from custody. I am not involved in the defense of Tomislav Ðorđević and do not know what he is accused of, but I feel the need to express my opinion on the matter.
Tomislav Đorđević is a man of great ideas, endless energy, a great visionary. I believe that he did nothing illegal and that it will soon be proven that I was right. I wish him good health and to persevere in his fight to prove his innocence.
