Koci also criticised a judicial decision regarding limiting the distance of approach, which he described as strange. He added that, although institutions had taken certain actions, they had not been sufficient to prevent the murder.
The court has made a decision that was very strange to me. The organs have acted, but it is not formally enough to take an action, for example, in the ban and detention of the armsman’s brother, but it has not been enough to prevent the murder. A tip that came to me today is that I believe I will soon fall into the hands of criminal justice. I think he’ll be arrested soon.

I believe it will soon fall into the hands of criminal justice. I believe he will soon be arrested, Koci said.
