Lawsuit to Strasbourg court over election irregularities

Montenegrin opposition intends to file a lawsuit to the European Human Rights Court in Strasbourg over election irregularities in the recent local elections. This is stated in the minutes from the meeting of the Municipal Election Commission (OIK) in Mojkovac. During the meeting, SDP representative pointed out that the lawsuit to Strasbourg court would be filed after all other legal remedies had been exhausted.

SDP official Mirel Radic Ljubisavljevic told Dan it was impossible to guarantee the right of free voting in a country where harsh economic conditions are enabling the regime to either extort or buy votes from people.

She said that the opposition intends to internationalise the problem of violated voting rights in Montenegro regardless of the Strasbourg court’s final ruling.
