Imagine this – a 34-year-old woman in Zagreb has been convicted of the brutal murder of her own newborn child! Yes, you read that right. On January 15th, this mother threw her baby into the Sava River near the Jankomir Bridge, and the poor girl’s body was only found at the end of April near Belgrade. Police, firefighters, rescue teams, drones, underwater scanners – everyone searched the entire river, but sadly, to no avail. The Croatian prosecution has filed charges and is pushing for extended detention due to the risk of reoffending. What’s even more shocking? The family was not under any social services supervision, and no protective measures were taken. This tragedy shakes the region and casts a dark shadow on our social responsibility. How could this happen without anyone stepping in? Did the system fail? Is society paying enough attention to its most vulnerable? This story is a wake-up call for serious debate on child protection and our collective responsibility. Got thoughts? Or just want to vent?
