The investigative judge of the Higher Court in Podgorica Miroslav Basovic decided to remand public enforcement officer Sinisa Mugosa in custody for 30 days. Mugosa is charged with trying to collect €846,000 fictitious debt from Crnogorski Telekom using a forged document.
Aleksandar Nestorovic from Podgorica has also been remanded in prison. He is suspected of helping Mugosa to obtain the disputed document.
Mugosa and Nestorovic were arrested on Tuesday evening upon the order of the special prosecutor Lidija Vukcevic, on suspicion of having committed the crime of creating a criminal organisation and abuse of office.
Dnevne Novine newspaper learns that Mugosa denied committing the crime he has been charged with before the investigative judge. He also said that he did everything he could not to cause the loss. He allegedly said that he had acted according to the court decision which he thought to be genuine.
Unlike him, Nestorovic allegedly said he did not know how he had been associated with this case.
According to unofficial information, Mugosa took a forged court decision from an unknown person in Belgrade. According to it, certain Slovenia-based company claimed €864,000 from Telekom.
Based on the forged court ruling, he issued a writ of execution upon which the money should be paid on 20 March.
However, a day later, Telekom officials reported the case to the Special Prosecutor’s Office, which immediately block the payment. However, Mugosa allegedly managed to collect a minor sum before the blockade.
The Special Prosecutor’s Office is apparently searching for two persons via Interpol. They allegedly participated in the planning and committing of this crime.
