Femicide in Serbia: crime and lesser punishments
Over the past ten years, more than 300 femicides have occurred in Serbia. The victims' families look for justice in court, but CINS’s investigation reveals that they often do not find it.
- Since femicide isn't recognised as a distinct crime in Serbia, there are no official statistics regarding these cases.
- Femicides can be treated as aggravated murder, with sentences ranging from 10 years to life imprisonment, while the sentences for murder or domestic violence resulting in death are lower – the maximum is 15 years in prison.
- More than half of the 117 cases of femicide analyzed by CINS that went to court between 2014 and the end of 2022 were not characterized as aggravated murder, enabling those who commit femicide to get away with lesser punishments.
