Grand Pacific Trade Call Center Scam Newsletter No. 57
Dear Clients,
Although the court has returned the case for a supplementary investigation, this does not mean that the process has stalled – on the contrary, this phase often represents a crucial step toward filing a stronger and more comprehensive indictment. The purpose of the supplementary investigation is to gather additional evidence, hear new witnesses, or clarify facts that will help the prosecution conduct the proceedings more effectively and with greater certainty.
After the prosecution completes this phase, several outcomes are possible:
- Confirmation of the existing indictment – if the newly collected evidence supports the original findings, the prosecution may resubmit the indictment for the court’s review.
- Amendment or expansion of the indictment – if new evidence emerges or it is established that additional persons were involved in the fraud, the indictment may be expanded to include more defendants.
- Termination due to lack of evidence – in exceptional cases, if the evidence is deemed insufficient, the prosecution may withdraw the indictment; however, victims still have the right to continue the process through a private prosecution.
While this phase may take some time, each step brings greater clarity regarding responsibility and increases the chances of eventual recovery of funds. It remains important to stay in contact with your attorney and promptly share any new information that could be relevant to the case.
Kind regards,
Attorney Zoran Miljaković
