In Serbia, twelve individuals face charges related to a deadly roof collapse at Novi Sad train station, which killed 15. The arrests were made after public outrage over alleged corruption and irregular construction practices.

Prosecutors in the Serbian city of Novi Sad have arrested 11 people in connection with the collapse of a railway station roof this month that killed 15 people and sparked a wave of protests.

Deadly incident occurred after Novi Sad station was renovated, protesters blaming sloppy work led by corrupt officials.

The Novi Sad prosecutor's office said it has questioned over 70 people since the tragedy, but no arrests were made until Thursday morning, sparking criticism from the opposition, which has been demanding a faster investigation.

After three weeks of protests demanding justice following the deadly collapse of part of the railway station in Serbia's second city, arrests have begun. Prosecutors ordered the questioning of 11 people in connection with the disaster at the recently-renovated facility in Novi Sad.

Twelve people have been arrested in Serbia in connection with a roof collapse early this month at a train station in the northern city of Novi Sad that killed 15 people and severely injured two.
