A Serbian court has ruled against Ivana Martinović, the mayor of Žitište municipality, finding her guilty of discrimination. The Higher Court in Zrenjanin issued a monetary fine following a case brought by activist Daniel Živanov. The non-governmental organization "Da se zna!" ("Let it be known!") announced the verdict today, highlighting the significance of the ruling. The case centered on allegations of discriminatory behavior towards Živanov, though specific details of the discrimination were not immediately available. This decision marks a rare instance of a Serbian official being penalized for discriminatory practices. The ruling is expected to set a precedent for future cases involving discrimination against activists and citizens. It underscores the importance of equal treatment and accountability for public officials.
