Serbian Animals Voice (SAV)

Hi Mark,

In attachment (below) is, today (2/10/14) received , an Answer from President of Serbia, Mr.Tomislav Nikolic Kabinet.

He wrote that he – the President, cannot take direct action because his rights as President are bordered by The Constitution; but he has sent our charge against the Republic Veterinary Inspection Krusevac: to Ministry of Agriculture and ask them to act and to inform EPAR about actions.

Thanks

Regards

Slavica

Here below is a copy in English of a formal Charge to the Serbian authorities regarding the matter of irresponsible owners of dogs and cats; and the men who profiteer from this.

The wording is as translated and supplied directly by Serbian welfare campaigners.  It is the translation of the charge made.

Again; as we have seen and been campaigning about for some 10 years or more now, very many authorities in Serbia are doing nothing regarding the sterilisation of stray animals to reduce their numbers over a period of time – basically, a programme for stray animal number reduction in Serbia.

As you can see from our other post today in relation to ‘Nani’ the baby deer – serbiananimalsvoice.com/2014/09/24/serbia-new-nani-deer-pictures-and-videos-from-209-and-229-2014/    –  there appears to be a situation of people in power to make decisions in accordance with Serbian legislation, who are in fact bending every rule that they have in their power to avoid being compliant with the law.

Taxpayers money should be invested in a national sterilisation and stray animal number reduction over a period of time.  It should not be spent on allowing animals to continue un-sterilised; to continue breeding with owned (also un-sterilised) animals which are still turned out onto the street each day by irresponsible owners.  They are irresponsible because they do not have their animals sterilised; and because they turn them onto the streets each day to reproduce with strays – thereby producing more stray animals on a continual basis.

The stray animal situation is a complete scam; a cover up by authorities who continue to spend money rounding up and killing healthy animals, rather than looking to a long term programme of stray animal reduction.

We are fully aware that even animals which have been sterilised with funding from overseas EU organisations; and which have been fitted with an ear ident tag to identify to shinters that they are no threat to increasing animals numbers; are STILL being rounded up; thrown into authority pounds to then be killed at a never ending coast to the taxpayer.

Who allows this ? – the same people who do not make a decision on the future of ‘Nani’ deer; despite regulations and law clearly showing that the decision time has long passed.

Is this the future for the EU and potential new members in future such as Serbia ? – they give the two fingers to the EU and just continue to do what they want using all the powers of corruption which runs the ‘business’ of stray animal management in its current form.

Regardless of the current situation; we will continue to be a voice for stray Serbian animals.

Serbian politicians wish to join the EU; but with a nation which is politically run by corruption; do other existing EU member states want the in the future we have to ask.  Look at the current situation in Romania for animals – an EU member state.  Fortunately with new seniors at the EU animal welfare Intergroup advising the MEPs who make up the Euro Parliament; we may now start to see some progress for the stray animals of Europe; and, not before time !!

Here below is the translation of the charge fled by Serbian activists on 22/9/14.

Subject: RE: ! PRIJAVA 22.9.14.!

PREVOD :

Charge filed 22/09/2014 for the organized crime

Urgency to the Charge of 05/09/2014 and Amendment and Extension of that Charge for the conduction to all competent state authorities, because it is a question of economic crime, abuse and mistreatment of a large number of animals in the extended period of time; in the greater part of AP Vojvodina.

Since 14/02/2011, Public Agency for Animal Hygiene, Vrbas has the facility for the accommodation capacity of 150 dogs with the suspicious Decision and without a check list. It is situated in the street Marsala Tita 89, on the cadastral plot number 2839, at the location of the reon 5.

For years this company brings in that facility a large number of dogs from the territory of the City of Novi Sad where there were 2500-3000 new dogs every year in the past decade. It also brings in a large number of dogs from the territory of Vrbas (in the past decade there has been 400 new abandoned dogs every year in Vrbas) and since 13/06/2014 this firm: Public Agency for Animal Hygiene Vrbas signed the contract with the Animal Hygiene Service of the City of Subotica which had 900 new dogs on the streets every year in the past decade. This indicates that all three cities have the same category of people, the one who abandon or throw out the animals they no longer want. This completely suits this company and its associates therefore as of 10/06/2009 NONE of these cities have a legitimate Program to manage and reduce this category of the population that actually supplies this company and enables the entire chain of accomplices in part of Vojvodina the gain of illegal profit along with the abuse of a large number of animals, which is in opposition to the applicable law.

We assume that the firm: Public Agency for Animal Hygiene Vrbas has similar, void contracts with more cities and that is something we want the Ministry of Interior and the Public Prosecutor’s Office to investigate, because it is about obtaining the illegal profit, with the criminal offense of abuse of a large number of dogs (cats are not mentioned so far in the documentation we have) in the entire greater part of AP Vojvodina.

We demand the prompt action, because it comes to living creatures which this firm and its accomplices from other cities in Vojvodina illegally manipulate, and therefore the urgent research and accurate determination of the facts is needed by state authorities who are able to follow the flow of money, as well as the state authorities who are able to follow the fate of the animals who are protected by the Article 7 of the Animal Welfare Law and the Article 269 of the Criminal Code of the Republic of Serbia.

We have seen NO answer to this above from Serbian government authorities for the last 10 years;

Serbian political corruption and ignorance of a progressive way forward to a long term solution is the current political way – who is right and who is wrong ?

Will stray animal numbers ever be reduced under the current regime, or will the continued corruption of the system allow animals to suffer indefinitely ???

Urgencija  Ministru , postovanoj g.Bogosavljevic Boskovic

–na znanje  Premijeru , postovanom g. Vucicu

dostavljamo Vam  dokaz porekla laneta , sto je trebala , a nije trazila RVI  Krusevac, koja je postupala 26.8.2014.  potpuno nezakonito i sa nedopustivim zakasnjenjem, apsolutno  neprofesionalno i nezakonito, potpuno ignorisuci  da je  Procedura po cl.58. zapoceta od strane g.Dragane Mitic 10.8.2014. – ovakve drzavne sluzbenike  koji nemaju  znanje u vezi propisa , nemaju  saznanje  o predmetu po kojem rade ,niti se trude  da ga akceptiraju ni kada im se to kaze – a mi smo im  dali na znanje i pisano i usmeno smo rekli i g.Zoranu Marinkovicu i g.Slavici Jovanovic  ,  o  svim elementima  slucaja  Lane Nani u kojem  postupaju,  i da se tacno zna poreklo i da je  procedura po cl.58.Zak o dobrob  zapoceta na  zahtev  zamenske majke laneta.Takve  osobe  koji se prema svom poslu i prema zakonu : odnose ignorantski, treba  HITNO OTPUSTITI iz drzavne sluzbe , ali i  revidirati  i utvrditi opravdanost penzijskog staza i socijalnog osiguranja za  svo vreme tog nesavesnog obavljanja poslova od strane ovih  lica  u drzavnoj sluzbi. Stete koje time prave – nazalost, nikada nece  moci da nadoknade .

Na ruke Ministra poljoprivrede i zastite zivotne sredine

2.9.2014.

Postovana g. Ministarka

Molimo  Vas da Vi   najzad  postupite po Zahtevima  g.Dragane Mitic  i EPAR-a  , a u skladu s  osnovnim nacelima i  relevantnim clanovima Zakona o dobrobiti zivotinja  koji se odnose na  slucaj laneta i njegove zamenske majke  koja  ga je uspela spasiti  iz kome od njegovih 7 dana starosti , nakon sto ga je  Draganin  komsija gljivar i pobratim predsednika LU Hajduk Veljko ,  nasao u zbunu u komatoznom stanju  . –  u ovom predmetu svi su postupali nezakonito i prema lanetu i prema porodici Dragane Mitic .Cekamo, zajedno s celim svetom koji prati ovaj slucaj , na Vasu saglasnost da  ovo lane  nastavi da zivi  sa svojom zamenskom majkom .

RVI  je tek na nase insistiranje postupala sa velikim zakasnjenjem ,  RVI nije postupila po clanu 79.Zakona o dobrobiti, mada joj zakon to postupanje  naredjuje RVI  nije nalozila vracanje laneta  njegovoj zamenskoj majci do Vaseg Resenja -Saglasnosti ,  cak je RVI potpuno ignorisala  cinjenicu o kojoj  je imala saznanje: da je Dragana Mitic 10.8.2014. postupila po cl. 58. ,tako da je vreme cekanja na Vasu saglasnost ispunjeno psihofizickim torturama  i predugacko .

Hvala.

Subject: ProceduraPoCl58.Ignorisana od Strane RVI

Postovani g. Vucicu

2.9.2014.

Ni 3 nedelje nakon sto je Dragana Mitic podnela Zahtev  Ministarki u  skladu s clanom 58. , RVI koja je nadlezna da  to zna , i kojoj smo to dostavili i u pisanoj formi i u tel kontaktu zastupnika EPAR-a sa g.Slavicom Jovanovic  –  pravi se suntava  i pravi se da ne zna da je  Procedura u toku ,  i pise  netacne  konstatacije , SVE RADI NA STETU DOBROBITI laneta, u INAT  nama , a na korist sopstvenu i LU . Korupcija na  delu pred ocima  javnosti .

FALSIFIKATORI CINJENICNOG STANJA   i dalje zloupotreblavaju polozaj !

Od 10.8.2014. Dragana Mitic ceka da g.Ministarka odluci, dotle  je lesinari napadaju  i ugrozavaju i njen i Nanijev opstanak.

Ministar , po nalogu clana 58. ima   rok do 30 dana  –   zasto ceka poslednji dan ? zar treba iscediti i poslednji atom energije iz  Nanija i Dragane, pa se tek onda  udostojiti da odradis  posao koji ti zakon naredjuje –  i da postupis u skladu s nacelima tog zakona  , na prvom mestu dobrobit laneta koje se vezalo za zamensku majku .Ko ima pravo da  ovom lanetu oduzme sansu da zivi s zamenskom majkom .Prvu majku su mu ubili lovci, sad  njega treba da dokrajci  Ministar ?  i Inspekjcija koja je po clanu 76., 78. i 79.  duzna da postupa u interesu DOBROBITI LANETA .

Degutantno i potpuno nesaglasno sa Zak o dobrobiti  je  dosadasnje postupanje i RVI  i Ministarke  –  uzgred, ovakve osobe kao ove koje su pisale zapisnik RVI, a da pri tom nemaju potpuno sagledan predmet – jer bi inace znali  da  je Procedura po cl. 58. pokrenuta jos pre 3 nedelje – takve osobe   mogle bi da  cuvaju ovce, ako neko ima poverenja da im poveri stado , a ne da rade  posao u ime  drzavnog organa .

Ovo nije uvreda , samo je deduktivni zakljucak o eventualnoj  potenciji tih osoba , definitivno  se  moze videti da nemaju potencijal da rade  odgovoran posao RVI , jer cak ni ne znaju da je Proceduru pokrenula Dragana Mitic u skladu s  clanom 58. Zakona o dobrobiti jos  davnog 10.8.2014.  i da  Minisatrka vec treba da je odgovorila ili  da odgovori do 9.9.2014.

kao i da taj odgovor ne sme da ide  na stetu dobrobiti laneta i njegove zamenske majke – jer  bi to bilo u suprotnosti s  vise clanova Zakona o dobrobiti, a i  ljudska prava Dragane i njene familije su vec naveliko narusena od 1.8.2014.

Molimo Vas da omogucite da ova agonija  i sarada  budu prekinuti bez dalje stete. Sad  nas  vec ceo svet posmatra, a i da ne, radi nas  gradjana Srbije, prekinite ovo, jedino Vi to mozete uciniti : samo  Vas molimo da nalozite  ovim drzavnim organima da rade  svi po zakonima Srbije i  po Ustavu.

Hvala.
