Mujović was left without an apartment in Rastoci

The higher court in Podgorica temporarily seized a two-room apartment in Nikšić from Radovan Mujović, due to the suspicion that it was acquired through crime.

That judge's decision Boris Savić it was published in the Official Gazette.

According to the evidence of the Special State Prosecutor's Office (SDT), Mujović is a member of a criminal organization Radoja Zvicer, the alleged leader of the Kavac criminal clan.

In the Court Decision, it is clarified that the two-bedroom apartment, in a three-story building in the Rastoci neighborhood of Nikšić, belongs to his father.

"A temporary security measure is set - a ban on the disposal of immovable property, with the recording of the ban in the immovable cadastre... KO Nikšić on cadastral plot number 378/2, a residential area under construction PD 19, storey P3, area 69 m2... because there is reasonable suspicion that the specified property was acquired through criminal activity," it says in the court documents.

It is stated that the decision will be submitted to the competent authority for state property management - the Podgorica Property Administration, which is responsible for the execution of that document.

An appeal can be filed against that decision, the court explains, but it does not stay execution...

A temporary security measure can last for the longest time until the decision on the permanent confiscation of property benefits acquired through criminal activity becomes final.

That temporary measure will be abolished ex officio if the indictment does not enter into legal force within two years from the date of adoption of the decision on determining the temporary security measure.

From murders to abuse of power

The SDT claims that the Swiss organized a criminal group that is charged with murders, planning murders, drug smuggling, smuggling, illegal possession of weapons, but also abuse of official position...

In the documents of that prosecution, it is written, among other things, that they are an employee of the National Security Agency Petar Lazovic and a policeman Ljubo Milović, on Zivicer's order, followed the members of the opposing Skaljar criminal clan, who were overlooked for shooting.

Lazović, Radovan Pantović, Milović, Zvicer, Radoje Živković aka Žuti (36), Nikola Spasojević (43), Milan Vujotić (40) and Duško Roganović (36) and others, SDT suspects that members of the criminal group are also responsible for international cocaine smuggling.

Lazović was arrested on July 18, and a day later members of the Special Police Department handcuffed Pantović as well.

The rest are on the run.

In the files of the SDT, it is written that in the second half of 2020, Lazović and Milović became members of the criminal organization formed by Zvicer, one as an ANB officer working in the Police Directorate, and the other as an UP officer.

"And in order to realize the criminal plan, they accepted to carry out the orders and instructions of the organizer of the criminal organization, the defendant Zvicer Radoj, which were transmitted to them directly or through other members of the criminal organization to follow the members of the opposing criminal organization for whom the organizer determines to take their lives and to they inform the organizer and other members of the criminal organization about this," it is written in the files of the prosecution.

Special prosecutor Zoran Vučinić states in the files that Lazović and Milović accepted Zvicer's order to carry out the criminal acts of drug and weapon smuggling by themselves and with other members of the criminal organization, and that the secret agent was abusing his official position...

To the son of the until recently assistant director of the Police Administration Zoran Lazović it is charged that he committed the criminal acts of creating a criminal organization, unauthorized production, possession and distribution of narcotic drugs, smuggling, illegal possession of weapons and explosive substances, and abuse of official position.

The case in which he was arrested was reopened at the beginning of May, by order of the chief special prosecutor Vladimir Novović.

Four months earlier, the special prosecutor Sasa Cadjenovic, analyzing the same evidence on the basis of which Lazović is now arrested, assessed that there are no elements of a criminal offense for which prosecution is undertaken ex officio.

Novović made the decision to investigate Lazović's connection with the Kavak criminal clan after the Libertas portal announced at the beginning of May that according to Europol data from the Sky ECC application, he and Milović are members of the Kavak clan and are directly involved in the smuggling of large quantities of cocaine from South America to the European Union and Australia, but also the smuggling of weapons and cigarettes for coffee shops.

Since then, the special prosecutor and his team have analyzed more than 700.000 intercepted messages, exchanged through the encrypted SKY Ecc application, almost around the clock. On that application, Lazović allegedly used the nicknames Junior and Komandos, Milović Evil Officer and Lieutenant, and Zvicer used the nicknames Born and Komita.

The prosecutors allegedly supported those messages with material evidence that the criminal group, made up of policemen and people from the other side of the law, together smuggled hundreds of kilograms of cocaine, but also that they committed other criminal acts.

According to those transcripts, Lazović and Milović, as active police officers, provided protection in Montenegro to the Kavčans and members of their clan accused of several monstrous murders.

That material was delivered to Montenegrin investigators by Europol and French judicial authorities in July and December 2021.
