On August 2 Dulic Markovic pressed charges against Cvetanovic, an SRS deputy in the Serbian parliament, after he called her and members of her family Ustashas in the town assembly.
The prosecutor's office in Leskovac believes that there was no spreading of ethnic intolerance and advises Dulic Markovic to file a private action if she is dissatisfied with the ruling, prosecutor Edvard Jerin told the Beta news agency.
The G17 Plus party, where Dulic Markovic holds a senior post, in late June suggested the District Prosecutor's Office in Belgrade to launch procedure to ban the SRS for hate speech, after a member of the Serbian parliament, Radical Zoran Krasic, called Dulic Markovic and her family Ustashas. Dulic Markovic is the only Croat in the Serbian government.
The Serbian State Prosecutor's Office recently decided that there were no grounds for banning the SRS.
