The investigating judge ordered the detention of Brankica Bašović, Đorđe Đurđić and Marko Nikolić and launched an investigation against the president of Atlas Group, Duško Knežević, and several suspects from his companies.
The Special State Prosecutor's Office suspects Knežević of having formed a criminal group that illegally obtained millions of profits over the years.
The special state prosecutor's office has been investigating the operations of Atlas and Invest Bank for months due to alleged money laundering.
The special police department filed criminal charges against 174 individuals and legal entities for the illegal acquisition of more than half a billion euros, and six former and current employees of Atlas Bank are among the suspects.
For years, Brankica Bašović was one of Knežević's most trusted people and was privy to the business connections of the controversial company Fiesta Investments LTD registered in Mauritius, which was accused by American investigators as a participant in corruption during the privatization of Telekom Crne Gore in 2012.
