Vucic: I expect more resignations in government and elsewhere tomorrow

BELGRADE - Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said in a public address on Tuesday evening he expected more resignations "in the government and elsewhere" on Wednesday over the recent tragic accident at the Novi Sad railway station.

Vucic said he was certain the competent prosecutor's office would take action in the shortest possible time.

He again extended his condolences to the families of the victims of the Novi Sad tragedy.

"I expect new resignations as early as tomorrow, in the government as well as elsewhere," he added.

The death toll of the November 1 overhang collapse at the railway station rose to 15 on Sunday after a female patient seriously injured in the accident died at the Vojvodina Clinical Centre in Novi Sad.

Doctors are fighting for the lives of two other seriously injured people.
