These competitions were attended by a total of 12 students, who we helped immensely in their preparation. In the “Days of Simulated Trial” competitions, students of the Faculty of Law of the University of Tetova, won the first 3 individual awards out of 6 and the second place in a competition between 4 Faculties of Law of the State Universities of North Macedonia.Student Mevlude Emini was selected as the best judge, student Antonija Serafimovska the best prosecutor and student Arijan Bajrami as the best defendant. While the other three awards were awarded to the University of Skopje (the best expert), to the University of Bitola (the best witness) and to the University of Štip (the best lawyer)”, – said Prof.Dr. Arta Bilalli – Zendeli.
