The trial of Srdjan Švelj (52), fashion designer, stylist and photographer, began yesterday in the Basic Court of Novi Sad due to the suspicion that he committed a crime full of harassment, obtaining and possession of pornographic material, as well as illegal possession of drugs.
The trial was held behind closed doors, since the public was excluded at the insistence of the judge and the prosecutor. On the other hand, Schwelj’s defense insisted that journalists be allowed to be present in the courtroom.
Horrors
– I think the public should be present, at least while reading the accusation, as well as during the presentation of the suspect’s defense. Especially considering the various false inscriptions that appeared in the media. If it had not been made public, there would have been no trial. If you exclude the public, all atrocities that have been written will be rewritten. That is why the public must be present and informed about why he is being tried, the lawyer for the accused stylist Vladimir Beljanski said yesterday.
However, the Deputy Public Prosecutor strongly opposed this proposal, which the judge accepted, and rejected the defense attorney’s proposal because the minors were injured in this case.
Followed for months
It should be recalled that the accusation against Srdjan Švelj was filed in early April and faces 5 years in prison.
– He is charged with three criminal offenses, including the production, acquisition and possession of pornographic material, illegal possession of narcotics and sexual harassment – says the source.

During the search of his apartment, which he used as a photographic studio, photos of naked minors and younger adults were found on the computer, whom he suspected gave narcotics in exchange after the photo shoot and offered them pleasure. oral, remember the source.
