European Union Commissioner for Enlargement Marta Kos visited the Novi Sad Railway Station today and laid flowers at the site where the station canopy collapsed on November 1 last year, when 16 people died.
She stated on her X account that she came to Novi Sad to pay tribute to the 16 victims of a “tragedy that could have been prevented.”

“My heart goes out to the victims and their families,” she wrote.
At the end of last year, an indictment was filed against 13 people due to the collapse of the canopy, however, the court returned the indictment for further investigation. Nine people are currently in custody, and three people are under house arrest.
