According to the journalist, “the Ribnica municipal councillors discussed the Roma issue at last night’s session, after three violent Roma physically attacked the mayor, Sam Pogorelec, a policewoman, and the son of a municipal employee.
As Mayor Pogorelc said, they are extremely disappointed with the government, which turns a blind eye to these issues and is not prepared to get more actively involved in solving the Roma problem. At the same time, municipalities do not have the leverage to influence changes themselves, citing non-attendance by Roma children, unemployment of Roma, non-sanctioning of the actions of violent Roma, and the like. At the same time, one of the municipal councillors wondered how it was possible that one of Saturday’s attackers was not yet in prison, even though he stabbed a man a few months ago.
Bad.
