He arrived at the Special Court building in Ustanicka Street in Belgrade accompanied by his lawyers.

Vesic was questioned at the Prosecutor’s Office for Organized Crime and gave his statement in the capacity of a suspect.

To recall, the Prosecutor’s Office for Organized Crime launched an investigation against former ministers Vesic and Tomislav Momirovic and 12 other individuals on suspicion that they caused $115 million in damage to the budget during the reconstruction of the Novi Sad–Kelebija railway line, which also included the renovation of the station building in Novi Sad.

In the arrest operation carried out on August 1st of this year at the order of the Prosecutor’s Office for Organized Crime, Vesic was not arrested because he had been admitted to the hospital the day before due to poor health.

Although detention was immediately ordered, later replaced by a more lenient measure of house arrest with mandatory electronic monitoring, Vesic remained hospitalized until nearly mid-October.
