From Croatian Media:
“Although the 73-year-old was questioned by the State Attorney's Office in Split for attempting to kill a 60-year-old neighbor who was hit in the head with a pickax two days ago in a village near Zagvozd, he was released to defend himself.
The only measure he received was a mandatory report to the police and a ban on approaching and contacting the victim.
Many in professional circles are wondering why the prosecution was satisfied with such a measure, and the public is unpleasantly surprised by this decision of the State Attorney's Office. By the way, pre-trial detention is ordered only when there are reasons provided by law, but as the whole event was filmed with a video camera and spread on social networks where the attack on the woman caused public outrage, it is clear that the decision of the State Attorney's Office caused controversy.”
