Nenad Stefanović applies for position at Supreme Public Prosecutor's Office

Nenad Stefanović, the current chief prosecutor of the Higher Public Prosecutor's Office in Belgrade, has submitted an application for a position within the Supreme Public Prosecutor's Office. This move comes as the Supreme Judicial Council recently opened a public competition for more than 130 public prosecutor roles throughout Serbia.

Among the vacancies advertised by the council is the selection of four prosecutors for the Supreme Public Prosecutor's Office. Sources confirmed to Danas that Stefanović is among the candidates who applied for these positions. The news portal Nova.rs first reported Stefanović's application.

N1, another portal, reached out to Stefanović to inquire about his motivations for seeking a transfer from his current chief prosecutor role to the Supreme Public Prosecutor's Office, but he has not yet responded. Stefanović was appointed as the Higher Public Prosecutor in late December 2021, assuming his duties at the beginning of 2022.

According to his biography available on the website of the Association of Judges and Prosecutors of Serbia, Stefanović has been employed at the Higher Public Prosecutor's Office in Belgrade since 2013. He initially served as a prosecutor's assistant before becoming a deputy public prosecutor in 2018. Prior to his career in the judiciary, from 2001 to 2004, he was a member of the Commission for the Application of Regulations of the Čukarica Municipality Assembly and also worked at the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Serbia within the Border Inspectorate.
