He is suspected of committing the criminal act of abuse of office, while N.N. (43) from Jagodina is suspected of aiding and abetting.

From January 1, 2019 to January 9, 2023, the doctor prescribed N.N., the patient, 4,149 packages of the drug Somatropin.

The doctor did this based on the documentation provided by N.N., signed by a specialist, despite knowing that it contained untrue information, the prosecution said.
