NOVI SAD, Serbia -- Many residents of Serbia's second-largest city, Novi Sad, held 14 minutes of silence on November 15 to honor the 14 people killed when a concrete overhang collapsed outside Novi Sad's main train station two weeks ago. The November 1 incident sparked widespread public anger and violent protests, and prompted the resignation of Construction Minister Goran Vesic. Other parts of the train station had just undergone years of renovation. Opposition calls have continued for the resignations of Novi Sad Mayor Milan Djuric and Prime Minister Milos Vucevic. Prosecutors are continuing their investigation of the tragedy. To read the original story by RFE/RL's Balkan Service, click here.
