The recent explosion in which the car "Golf 2" of Beran police inspector Goran Pešić was blown up is the latest in a series of unprovoked attacks on the property of police officers and citizens in that city.

As "Vijesti" was unofficially told, there are no significant developments in the investigation that could lead to the perpetrator and the person in charge.

"All the excluded traces have been sent to the Forensic Center in Danilovgrad, but there is still no answer as to whether DNA was retained on any of the material traces," said the interlocutor from the police.

The car was wrecked in the early hours of the morning, and the Renault Clio parked next to it was also damaged by the force of the explosion. A strong detonation brought many to their feet around three o'clock after midnight.

"The whole building shook, like an earthquake. Glass could be heard breaking. We all ran out of our building and the surrounding buildings to see what it was all about. The scene was like in crime movies. Car parts and glass everywhere," said one of the tenants.

Everything happened just a hundred meters from the city center, in Ulica Osme Montenegrinje Brigade, in the parking lot where there were dozens of cars.

The detonation shattered the windows of two neighboring buildings, which are separated only by a narrow street and a parking lot.

The explosive was most likely placed under the passenger seat, and the fact that the floor of the car was completely pierced in a diameter of more than half a meter, and the interior of the entire car looked creepy, is evidence of its strength. A crater with a diameter of twenty and a depth of six centimeters remained in the asphalt.

Pešić has decades of experience and has worked on the most difficult criminal cases.

He was involved in solving some of the most brutal murders in the North.

The case reminded of the fact that many cases of planting explosives remained unsolved.

It has never been resolved who planted explosives under the "reno 4" of the then Commander of the Security Center Dragan Šćepanović at the end of the nineties.

There is no trace or answer even in the much more brutal case of the explosion in mid-January 2002, when the apartment of the then head of the CB Berana, Dragan Mazić, was mined. It was only by sheer luck that no one from the family was hurt.

It is unclear who and why he placed the explosives under the jeep of another Beran chief, Nova Veljić, in front of the building where he lived at the time. Veljić's cars were set on fire even after his retirement, which was also never explained.

Of the relatively recent cases, to this day it has not been clarified who set fire to the two cars of the then traffic commander Danko Jelic. His and his wife's car were parked next to each other in front of the building where they live, practically in the center of the city.

It remains unclear who set fire to the private car of the inspector in the drug department, Marijana Radovanić, also in the city center. Not long after, Radovanić left her police job and went to law school.

The big arson on two vans of the "Berane 2003" Handball Club, which were parked in the yard of coach Vesko Raketić's house, has already been forgotten, although the damage is measured in tens of thousands of euros.

The Janković family's wood processing factory, a beauty salon, the car of an employee of the Employment Office, the director of the Beran General Hospital, a doctor, an emergency medical technician, the car of the owner of a private pharmacy and who knows how many others burned down in an arson attack.

The case from January 29, 2001, when six people died in a terrible explosion, has not been solved either. The multi-story house of the Martinović brothers was demolished to the ground with several kilograms of destructive explosives. In addition to Duško Martinović (36) and his own brother Milutin (31), their brother from their uncle Ljubiš (26) and young cafe workers - Igor Cimeša and Biljana Radović - also died.

Srđan Stamenković, who brought in the explosives and who was probably sacrificed by the perpetrators, also died.
