Serbia's Justice Ministry said on Wednesday it formed a working group with other ministries for drafting a law on regulating and functioning of the Amber Alert to speed up the finding of missing children, the FoNet news agency reported.

An amber alert or a child abduction emergency alert is a message distributed by a child abduction alert system to ask the public for help in finding abducted children. It was first introduced in the US in 1996.

The Ministry said the media people would also be consulted.

The representatives of the Justice Ministry had a meeting with 'Tijana Juric Foundation' which launched the initiative.

Tijana was a 15-year-old girl, who was kidnapped, raped and murdered in northern Serbia in 2014.

The abductor, rapist and murderer Dragan Djuric from the Belgrade Zemun suburb, was sentenced to the maximum 40 years in jail.

Serbia doesn't have a death penalty, but many people demanded the re-introduction of that punishment for the gravest crimes like in Tijana's case.
