The decision by the Commercial Court of Pancevo reached on May 24 initiated the procedure of examining conditions for initiating the bankruptcy proceedings in Petrohemija.

The measure of ban on execution of decree for secured and unsecured property of Petrohemija, including the ban on exercising various creditors’ rights was adopted on the same date.

The hearing for considering the petition for a reorganization plan had been scheduled for July 29, but wasn’t held.
