After a Croatian NGO filed a lawsuit over the death of a six-year-old Afghan girl who died close to the Serbia-Croatia border, Serbian authorities may face similar legal action.
The Asylum Protection Centre, an NGO in Serbia, has told BIRN it is considering launching a lawsuit against Serbia over the death of Medina Husein, an Afghan migrant who lost her life, aged six, near the Serbia-Croatia border earlier in November.
“Institutions are treating this case [the death] as if it were not a child but some kind of less worthy being. This case is one sad fate – a child with a name and surname, and we want the truth,” Rados Djurovic, from the Asylum Protection Centre, told BIRN.
