The man who was detained yesterday on suspicion of being connected to the bomb threats received by several Skopje schools was freed Thursday following an official questioning and home search, with the expertise showing he had no connection with the bomb threats, the Public Prosecutor’s Office (PPO) told MIA.

As PPO pointed out, after the person was deprived of his liberty by the Skopje police, the public prosecutor was notified, who, in the interest of effective action, immediately submitted to the judge of the preliminary procedure a request for a search of the person’s home and confiscation of the electronic devices from which messages could potentially be sent.

During the past evening, according to the instructions of the public prosecutor, all necessary actions were carried out in order to prevent further detention of the person. Given that the initial expert reports did not show a connection between the person and the sent messages, the person was released after the interrogation, PPO told MIA.​
