GROM reported that the leader of the party, Stevçe Jakimovski, served a six-and-a-half-month prison sentence. Jakimovski reportedly completed this sentence voluntarily. The conviction was issued by the Criminal Court regarding the erection of two temporary structures, described as barracks, which the commune utilized over a thirteen-year period.
The party issued a statement expressing concern over the ruling, arguing that the structures did not cause harm. Furthermore, GROM noted that the commune had levied a substantial rent charge of one and a half million euros for the entire duration of the use of the space. According to the statement, the case presents a notable legal precedent in Europe, involving a custodial sentence for the minor offense of erecting temporary structures.
GROM highlighted that the construction was reportedly executed based on a decision from the Commune Council, supported by a work program, a public procurement process, and backed by the commune’s own budget. The party contended that the circumstances surrounding the erection of the temporary facilities warranted a different legal outcome. The announcement focused on the discrepancy between the charges and the administrative framework supposedly supporting the initial construction.
