Nikola Dobričanin of his own free will concluded an agreement with the Special State Prosecutor's Office, admitting that he committed criminal acts - creation of a criminal organization and evasion of taxes and contributions.
The defendant confirmed this yesterday at the hearing in the High Court in Podgorica before judge Boris Savić.
In the plea agreement, he states, among other things, that he agreed with the prosecution on a suspended sentence of one year and 11 months in prison, which will not be carried out unless he commits a new criminal offense within a period of three years.
Dobričanin was also fined 30.000 euros and is obliged to return the acquired illegal property benefit.
As announced in court, the defendant, through his defense counsel, lawyer Vlad Vuković, initiated a proposal to negotiate with the Special Prosecutor's Office on a plea of guilty.
Then followed a negotiation with the prosecutor Lidija Mitrović on the amount of the sanction, after which a record of the negotiation was drawn up.
It was emphasized that no one forced Dobričanin to sign the plea agreement with the use of force and threats.
"I admit that I illegally withdrew money in the amount of 121.000 euros through three companies that are my property. It is about deals with Ivan Vuković, which were partly illegal and I extracted money through fake invoices and thus reduced the profit. "The companies I own provide services in the media domain, and one of them is 'Mama International,'" he said.
Answering the court's question, the prosecutor said that no pressure was put on the defendant to admit guilt, nor was he promised anything other than what was written in the agreement.
At the end of the hearing, the parties unanimously proposed to the court that the agreement be adopted. Judge Savić announced that the parties will receive the court's decision through the registry office.
