Former PM Zaev Files Defamation Lawsuits against Petrushevski and Mitrev

Former PM Zaev has filed lawsuits for defamation and violation of honor and reputation against VMRO-DPMNE MP Brane Petrushevski and cardiovascular surgeon Zhan Mitrev. The former SDSM leader is seeking 500,000 denars from each.

He said the money would be donated to children without parents and persons with special needs.

Zaev is suing Petrushevski over his comments on the marijuana case and Mitrev over his comments about pressure to buy Zhan Mitrev Clinic, made in an interview with Alfa. In response, Petrushevski said he was not afraid of the process, adding that the time of pressures on the judiciary was over.
