Milev Lekovski, a member of the Executive Committee of VMRO-DPMNE, announced at a press conference that legal action will be initiated through the Ministry of Justice concerning allegations surrounding the former Minister of Health, Veno Filipce. The focus of the inquiry pertains specifically to water quality issues in Gošter and the wider region of Macedonia. Lekovski stated that the core of the dispute revolves around the quality of the local water supply.
According to the statement, the citizens have been utilizing the water in Gošter for several years, and Lekovski asserted that Filipce was aware of this situation. He highlighted that official documents obtained by his group reportedly prove that Filipce failed to submit to the required testing protocols, specifically referencing 400 analyses concerning the water. The statement further alleged that, despite the documented testing procedures, Filipce allegedly attempted to shift blame onto the residents of Gošter for any resulting health issues.
Lekovski contended that this action was unwarranted, given the evidence suggesting ministerial non-compliance with established health and environmental regulations. The remarks emphasize that the current legal proceedings aim to establish factual clarity regarding the management and testing procedures related to the water supply during the relevant period. The statement maintained that the documented evidence disputes any narrative suggesting the local population was responsible for issues linked to the water quality.
