The Special State Prosecutor's Office completed the collection of evidence and notifications in the "Možura" case and submitted the files to an economic expert for analysis and opinion.
After the expert submits data on money flows and tax payments to the state, he will return the documents to the SDT, which will then decide whether to archive the case or launch an investigation against those responsible in that case.
During the investigation, the special prosecutors did not take a statement from Branimir Gvozdenović, who in 2012 as Minister of Sustainable Development and Tourism issued key permits, after which the construction of a wind farm on the hill between Bar and Ulcinj was started...
In the files, there are statements by Gvozdenović's relatives - Marko and Bojan Vujović, who were previously also employees of that department, and whose names are found in numerous documents during the buying and selling combinatorics of the VE.
Bojan Vujović, according to documents from the investigation in Malta, was the representative of the company "Cifidex Limited" and he signed the contract for the sale of the company "Možura Wind Park" to the company "Enemalta".
Vujović previously announced that he was only a lawyer in that business, who provided legal and technical support in the project.
The business related to the purchase and sale of VE "Možura" in Malta was allegedly assessed as corruption, because it is believed that corruption occurred through the company "Cifidex Limited" and other related transactions from 2015 and later, which were partly carried out through Montenegro. more senior government officials of Malta.
Allegedly, that case is connected with the murder of journalist Dafna Caruana Galizia. During that dubious deal, the Montenegrin government guaranteed the purchase of electricity worth 115 million euros to the company "Možura Wind Park" over the next 12 years.
Overpaid for consulting services?
The focus of the SDT investigation was to check whether Marko Vujović, as the executive manager of the company "Adriatic Capital Advisory", overpaid or perhaps charged twice for the consulting services of the company "Možura Wind Park".
During the work, SDT checked whether the consulting services (obtaining various permits and reports) were done at all for "Možura Wind Park" and whether that work was worth 1.400.725 euros.
In that part, SDT took statements - where the officials from "Možura Wind Park" claimed that it was not much for them to pay around 40.000 euros on a monthly basis to the company "Adriatic capital advisory" and that there is nothing disputed...
During the reconnaissance, it was also checked who were the principals who, on the basis of consulting services, made payments in favor of the "Adriatic capital advisory" account and who spent the money and in what way...
The owner of the company "Adriatic capital advisory" is hiding behind the off-shore company from the Seychelles "Spartans Global Holding INC".
Before that, Marko Vujović through his company "Management consulting Montenegro" provided "project development" services for the construction of wind farms from 2015 to 2017, after which the company was closed.
According to the documents collected by the Maltese prosecutor's office in the international investigation into corruption and money laundering, into which "Vijesti" had access, there is a contract signed by the Podgorica company "Možura Wind Park" as the contractor and "Adriatic Capital advisory" as contractor with "Vestigo Clean Energy Limited" from the British off-shore zone from the island of Guernsey as a guarantor.
According to that contract, "Adriatic Capital advisory" will receive 40.000 euros per month for consulting services for the next two years, from November 15, 2015, that is, until the project is "put into full commercial operation"...
"Možura" was officially opened at the end of last year.
Several annexes to the contract were concluded, and one of them foresees the payment of another 285.000 euros to the company "Adriatic Capital advisory", but it is not clear for which services the additional money was intended.
The Prosecutor's Office from Malta claims, as reported in the media, that through monetary transactions for "consulting services" that occurred during the contracting and construction of the Možura wind park, part of which was paid for by the state company Enemalta when Možura was purchased. from the offshore company "Cifidex Limited", the corruption of high-ranking officials in Malta was carried out, and they are also investigating connections with decision-makers in Montenegro...
The expert asks for opinions on whether the tax has been paid
"Vijesti" learned that SDT asked an economic expert for an opinion regarding the business of "Možura wind park", which took over the construction of a wind power plant on Možura, and which refers to the right to deduct input VAT in the amount of almost seven million euros.
That amount of VAT is shown in the financial documentation based on the purchase of products (turbines and other equipment) from the company "Spic Ronghe International Limited", whose total value was slightly over 40 million euros.
In the "black list" of the Tax Administration from October of this year, it was stated that the company "Spic Ronghe International Limited - Montenegro", which sold the turbines for Možura, has a tax debt in the amount of 8,96 million euros.
For months, SDT checked the money transfers of two companies, which were carried out on the basis of financial leasing contracts, loan contracts and product sales contracts, in order to verify the grounds for suspicion of the existence of tax and contribution evasion, abuse of authority in the economy and the criminal offense of money laundering. money...
During September, two investigations into the "Možura" affair were merged into a common case - the first launched in October 2017 and the second in April this year, which related to unpaid taxes to the state.
The data, which is owned by SDT, shows that the disputed offshore company "Cifidex Ltd" was the owner of the Montenegrin company "Možura Wind Park" for 20 days, in the period from December 9, when it bought the project from the Spanish "Fersa" and the Podgorica " Čelebića", until December 29, 2015, when he sold the work related to the construction of the wind farm to the Maltese state company "Enemalta".
The existence of that disputed company during the multi-year combinatorics and change of owner of "Možura" was hidden by the Ministry of Economy, and the data on these transactions were also hidden in the information of the Government of December 28, 2015 regarding the project in the field of energy during the time when Milo Đukanović was the Prime Minister.
"In the course of 2015, between 'Fersa' and 'Cifidex', a contract was concluded on the purchase of shares and several contracts on amendments and additions to the basic contract, so that in the end, the legal entity 'Fersa' sold its share to the legal entity 'Cifidex Limited' for the amount of 2,9 million euros. In the same period, this legal entity was registered in CRPS as the sole founder of 'Možura wind park'. Also, in the same period, the legal entity "Čelebić DOO" concluded an agreement on the purchase and sale of shares and several agreements on amendments to the basic contract based on which it sold its share for the amount of 650.000 euros to the legal entity "Cifidex limited". After that, on December 28, 12, a contract was concluded between the legal entities 'Cifidex limited' and 'Enemalta' for the sale of shares for the amount of EUR 2015 million, and on December 3,5, 29, the legal entity 'Enemalta' was recorded in the CRPS as the founder of the legal entity 'Možura wind park' Podgorica", announced special prosecutor Sanja Jovićević this summer.
Enemalta representatives admitted in the investigation in Malta that they bought "Možura" from "Cifidex" for 11,3 and not 3,5 million euros, and that the payments were made through other companies.
Nothing in dispute about where they spent the money
At this stage of the investigation, the Special State Prosecutor's Office did not find disputed information about how the company "Adriatic Capital Advisory" spent money from consulting services.
SDT has information that "Adriatic Capital Advisory" bought a plot of land in an exclusive location in Donja Lastva in Tivat with the money from disputed consulting services, where it started the construction of a residential building.
The building has 14 apartments, and in the cadastre there are notarial records of preliminary purchase agreements with a total of four buyers. According to data from the cadastre, the buyer of at least one apartment in that building is the company "Montmorecy", whose owner is Antoni Aksis.
The affairs of the Maltese lawyer Antonio Aksis were investigated by the murdered Maltese journalist Daphne Caruana Galici.
Directly next to the land of the company "Adriatic Capital advisory" in Donja Lastva, there is also a plot of land owned by the company "Iron Investments and Advisory" Marko Gvozdenović, the son of the high-ranking DPS official Branimir Gvozdenović.
The partners of the younger Gvozdenović and co-owners of this plot are Lija Morohovska, the owner of 47 percent of the shares in Zapad banka, the company "Graal" of the former director of the Tax Administration Dejan Marinović and now a member of the board of Zapad banka.
Minor co-owners of the land are Maria Listitcka and Kantor Semen.
According to the Estonian register of business entities, Listitcka is a representative of the company "OU Calyptra invest", which is one of the largest depositors in Zapad banka.
When Ana Đukanović, the sister of President Milo Đukanović, mortgaged her 214-square-meter apartment in Kruševac, Podgorica, for a loan of 13,1 million euros from Zapad banka, two years ago, the company "OU Calyptra invest" was a kind of guarantor because then registered her mortgage on the same apartment.
