The controversial man from Budva, Marko Ljubiša Kan, whose name is associated with the drug business, has sued the state of Montenegro, due to the alleged unfounded arrest and stay in prison, "Vijesti" has learned. Ljubiša is demanding about 30.000 euros from the state.
His attorney, lawyer Zdravko Begović, said that 12 years ago, Ljubiša was arrested and suspected of the attempted murder of Darko Kalezić in Budva.
"He was in custody for a while, only to be released to defend himself while the investigation continues. After that, the court found him guilty of the attempted murder of Kalezić and sentenced him to one year in prison," said Begović.
After an appeal, the lawyer says, that verdict was overturned 10 years ago. After that, the case went through several judges.
"Finally, he reached the judge of the High Court, Dragoj Jović, who issued an Interpol warrant for Ljubiša, a year and a half ago. According to the warrant, Ljubiša was arrested in Serbia, where he was in extradition custody for four months, after which he was extradited to Montenegro. "He was held in the prison in Spuz for about two months, and then he was released after the prosecutor dropped the criminal prosecution for attempted murder due to a lack of evidence," Begović said.
This was the reason for Khan to sue Montenegro for allegedly unjustified detention.
Marko Ljubiša aka Khan is associated with the Zemun clan of Luka Bojović, of which he is allegedly a close associate.
Ljubiša was wounded in March of this year in Belgrade. Serbian media reported that Khan appeared at the emergency room, bloodied and riddled with wounds, after being brought there by a taxi driver.
He said his name and began to lose consciousness and pulse. He did not want to say who shot him, where and why.
Doctors found four gunshot wounds on the neck and body. Before he was wounded, Lubiša was driving a white "Golf" on Vladimira Popovića Street, when a black "Audi" with tinted windows approached him and hit him from the side, after which the passenger from the "Audi" started shooting at him through the window. firing more than 10 rounds.
There was another man in the car with Kana who was sitting in the passenger seat, he was not injured.
The taxi driver who transported Khan to the emergency room told the Serbian media that the wounded Ljubiša was conscious the entire time while driving.
"My name is Marko, I am seriously wounded, take me to the Emergency Center"
"Sam appeared in front of the taxi door, got in and just said to me, 'My name is Marko, I'm seriously wounded, take me to the Emergency Center.' He was fully conscious and was constantly feeling the body and looking at where he was hit," said a taxi driver at the time, who encountered Khan at the intersection of Vladimir Popović and Yuri Gagarin in New Belgrade, among other things.
It was not the first attack on Budvanin, in 2009 he was wounded near the Arena after the Partizan-Panathenaikos match when he received a gunshot wound to the neck.
The police then concluded that it was about his unsettled criminal accounts.
The name of Marko Ljubiša was once linked to the murder of Ivan Šćepanović from Kraljevo, otherwise a close relative of the controversial Budva resident Ivan Delić.
Šćepanović was killed in Budva in January 2011, but it has never been proven that Ljubiša had any role in that liquidation.
