"Ja pozdravljam odluku EP-a da mi se ukine imunitet, jer se time, nakon višemjesečnog oklijevanja i optužbi bez osnova, demagogije i laži, otvara put za istragu o namještaljci čija je žrtva, umjesto da bude zaštićena, javno pogubljena, bez pretpostavke o nevinosti u okviru prava samoodbrane," izjavio je Severin u saopćenju za štampu.
"I salute the EP's decision to lift my immunity because, after months of hesitations and baseless accusations, demagogy and lies, it opens the way to an investigation into a frame-up whose victim, instead of being protected, has been publicly executed, without the presumption of innocence in the right to defend oneself," Severin said in a press release.
