“It is true that officials of Police Directorate in cooperation with Agency for National Safety arrested 20 citizens of Serbia last night. This was done based on operative and intelligence data police acquired, and on the warrant of Special State Prosecution. They are suspected of entering Montenegro with an intent to acquire automatic weapons and attack institutions of the system tonight”, he said, without revealing the names of the arrested.

The arrested are B.D. (1970), K.H.(1977.), V.B.(1995.), N.Đ.(1995.), S.V.(1991.), G.K.(1999.), B.K.(1976.), L.Đ.(1998.), B.M.(1955.), M.D.(1957.), D.M.(1976.), S.Đ.(1964) , A.Č.(1983), A.A. (1974), N.Đ.(1982.), S.Ć.(1979.), D.S.(1974.), M.A.(1990.), I.M.(1980.) and P.A.(1977.)

Among arrested is Bratislav Bata Dikić, controversial former commander of Gendarmerie of Serbia.

“We have reasonable doubt that in the beginning of October a criminal organization was formed in Serbia and Montenegro, in order to influence executive and legislative leadership in Montenegro. There is reason to believe that the plan of this organization was to attack citizens gathered in front of the Parliament at the time of election results announcement. They would then take over the Parliament, with an intent to announce certain political group’s victory. There is reason to believe that they planned to arrest the Prime Minister of Montenegro”, Prosecution stated.

In order to implement this plan, leader of the group Bratislav Dikić arrived to Montenegro early yesterday morning, with an intent to command armed individuals in taking over the Parliament.

“Suspects entered Podgorica in private vehicles, whereupon they formed three groups. They had instructions to distribute weapons for their plan”, Prosecution stated.

On the warrant of Special State Prosecution, officials of Special Police Department and Police Directorate arrested the leader and members of this group at the moment they went to check hidden storage of weapons.

President of Montenegro Filip Vujanović, after casting his vote, did not wish to comment on this event. He said state institutions need to make a statement first.

Prime Minister Milo Đukanović said that he has confirmation that institutions would soon make a statement.

“Montenegro is a state of stability. If someone tries to attack it, they will end up the same as everyone who tried this before”, Đukanović said.
