Igor Jurić, founder of the “Tijana Jurić” Foundation, said, during his guest appearance on the Questionnaire program, that this case is very important for our country.
“For us since the foundation, the case is important because we are in contact with several victims of abuse, who are afraid of appearing in public. It largely depends on how (the victims) will treat society, how the case will end. , how long it will take, so that they too can turn around and put abusers where they belong, “Jurić said.
He points out that there is no difference between being public or being a stranger when establishing a system for manipulating and carrying out sexual crimes.
“It bothered me that someone who is a public figure, a person recognized in our friendship, is a great loss of trust in the people to whom we give our children and we believe that he will do something good with them”, emphasizes the founder of the “Tijana Jurić” Foundation.
Jurić believes that suspect Aleksić prepared the victims for the final act for a long time, in a perfidious and smarter way.
“People like this are much more dangerous and common. They are all around us, in all schools,” Juric believes.
He added that in a conversation with people from the Interior Ministry, the Foundation tried to seek protection for the family of Milena Radulović, who, he says, believed that it would get it, but it did not happen.
Psychologist Tanja Ignjatović highlights that this case did not affect her because she faces violence every day through her work at the Autonomous Center for Women.
“There is so much violence and we hear it every day, in fact we know that there is much more than what is denounced and made public. What is important is how these women decided to denounce the experience and show solidarity. used by all bullies “, Ignjatović emphasizes.
Why the victims are silent for a long time
Tanja Ignjatović points out that there is nothing more terrible than a sexual experience that overrides all limits, both physical and psychological.
“We do not have the right to force someone to act before they have the strength to report. Often there is a huge imbalance of power between the perpetrator and the victim, which he can abuse and cancel all the steps,” says the psychologist.
Also, as he says, someone who has been deprived of all control, must learn in time to return that control, must decide when to start something and when not to.
“A parent can recognize if they have information. Children are confused and do not recognize the action. It is so scary that they cannot think or speak, those emotions overwhelm: shame, fear, guilt, anger, rage and children have different opinions about what what will happen It is not about whether the parents will understand me, they are also afraid of the consequences when they tell their parents ”, emphasizes Ignjatović.
Igor Jurić pointed out, for example, a boy who came into contact with the Foundation and who had suffered serious sexual abuse for years.
“It is a terrible suffering. His greatest fear was that his family would not reject him, he thought he was guilty, he thought he was doing something wrong, they blackmailed him, and this is an exceptional child,” Juric said.
Ignjatović adds that people often do not even notice the violence because we have normalized that way of speaking.
The crime of rape does not expire in 30 years
He also emphasized that the big question is why someone chooses to go and report to the foundation or NGO, rather than the police. One of the reasons is the long and laborious procedures.
“They tend to give up when they have to repeat the same thing that happened to them, three, four or five times in court,” Juric said.
Ivana Josifović, Magistrate of the High Court, emphasizes that in this case it is important that the criminal process is carried out efficiently.
“I would always encourage the case to be denounced. Informing journalists and NGOs is useful from other aspects, but the institutions are to achieve any protection that is formal-legal. We can morally condemn any act that is discussed, but the state of law tends to bring illegal conduct under legal form and punishments, in order to protect potential victims, “said Josifovic.
He said that in the case of the raped actresses, an investigation and collection of evidence will follow.
“Each piece of evidence is evaluated separately, so the statements of the injured parties are valid evidence. Fifteen years is the statute of limitations from the moment a procedural action is initiated and when it is not initiated 30”, emphasized Josifović.
