The security services are concerned that Igor Trnski's safety could be threatened, so in addition to members of the regular police, he is guarded by agents of the National Security Agency (ANB).
A reliable source close to the investigation told "Vijesti" that, explaining that the prosecution's associate witness, in addition to visible security guards, is closely followed by secret police officers.
Trnski and the former mayor of Budva, Rajko Kuljača, received the status of cooperating witnesses in the case of the suspicious sale of land on the Jaz.
Based on their testimony, an arrest warrant was issued three days ago for Miloš Marović and his godfather Marko Vujović.
Miloš is the son of DPS official Svetozar Marović, who was allegedly identified by the prosecution's associates as the person who designed the illegal business in Budva, and on the basis of which the local municipality was damaged for 1.400.000 euros.
Trnski and Kuljača are under 24-hour protection, and police inspectors constantly ensure their movements and guards in front of their homes...
"Every movement and contact they make is controlled, either with passers-by, or with relatives and friends," said one of the interlocutors of "Vijesti".
The police have the most work to protect Trnski.
Even though the police officers who follow him are like plasters and do not separate from him, he comes to work every day and has numerous contacts, which makes the guards' job difficult.
Kuljača received security even after the "opening" of the first affair about million-dollar embezzlement in the case of the construction of TQ Plaza and the concert plateau on Jaz.
Eyewitnesses told "Vijesti" that, despite this, he did not give up his old habits - he walks around Budva and drinks in local bars.
After he was sentenced in the first instance in the "Zavala" case, Kuljača said that he would speak about those who "set up affairs" for him, only if they did not shoot him in the legs.
Chronology
In the investigation into the sale of 26.000 municipal square meters in the hinterland of the Jaz beach, five people have been arrested so far and an arrest warrant issued for Marović and Vujović.
In 2008, the municipality organized a public auction for the sale of that plot, to which three local companies responded, whose owners are connected to each other through business and family-friendly ties.
The offers were submitted by the non-governmental organization AMD, Marko Vujović, through the company "Orbis" and the company of the well-known restaurateur Nemanja Zeca, "Porto Budva company".
Trnski leased that land to Miloš Marović's company even before he won the auction as the best bidder.
After the official purchase, he concludes a lease agreement with Marović's company "Smart IT" for about 1.000 square meters, where the construction of a furniture showroom is planned.
In the name of that project, "Smart IT" takes a loan of 400.000 euros from CKB. After they built the concrete skeleton of the future salon, the work was suddenly stopped.
Marović's company "leaves" the loan obligation to the Budva company "Megapromet", businessman Miodrag Miša Mitrović. He undertakes to return 300.000 euros, and the rest of the loan is taken over by "Pantomarket".
Although they took the land on Jaz for 1,3 million euros, AMD only paid 100.000 euros to the municipality, but despite that, the local administration did not terminate the contract with Trnski. AMD then sells the land to "Megapromet", which takes over the debt.
Mitrović "removes" the debt of half a million by offsetting the debt of the Municipality, which they made at his company in the name of employees' winter holidays. The rest of the debt is also compensated, Mitrović takes over the debts that he The municipality had towards third parties.
Then the former owners of the land in Mrčevo polje decide to sue the Municipality, claiming that the land complex on Jaz is their ancestral property.
"Megapromet" then turns to the Municipality with a request to give them an attractive 8.166 square meters of land in Jaz on the sea foam on Crvena glavika, opposite the city-hotel Sveti Stefan, which the local government does after receiving the consent of the Ministry of Finance.
The municipality, however, returns the land on the Jaz to its ownership at twice the price - 115 euros per square meter.
The former head of the Budva cadastre Mirjana Marović, the former vice-president of the municipality Lazar Rađenović and the appraisers Milka Lazarević, Marko Radunović and Ljubiša Baćević are also suspects in that case.
