Party files draft law against war mercenaries The party, led by cabinet minister Rasim Ljajic, called on MPs to adopt the draft law on urgent procedure. The draft law envisages a prison sentence of 2 to 12 years for individuals encouraging and organizing recruitment of Serbian citizens for the needs of foreign armed formations, while individuals who decide to join organised formations in an armed conflict face a prison sentence of one to five years in prison, states the release. The law aims to prevent participation of Serbian citizens in armed conflicts worldwide because a number of people from the country have been joining paramilitary units abroad, be it through organised or individual efforts, for material or any other reasons. After some time, the people return to Serbia and become the spokespersons of propaganda which encourages others to commit the same criminal act, which is why the Code of Criminal Procedure needs to be appended by introducing a special crime, said the SDPS.
