The extra-judicial panel of the High Court in Podgorica rejected as unfounded the appeal of Saša Čađenović's defense against the detention of the arrested special prosecutor, court spokeswoman Aida Muzurović told "Vijesta".

Čađenović was previously detained due to the risk of escape and the risk of influencing witnesses.

He was arrested on December 9, on suspicion of having committed the criminal offense of "creating a criminal organization and several criminal offenses of abuse of official position" in the position he holds.

Čađenović was arrested by order of the Special State Prosecutor's Office, which suspected that Čađenović became a member of the criminal organization "Kavčani" in the second half of 2020 to 2022.

"The suspect is accused of becoming a member of the criminal organization 'Kavački Klan' in the period from mid-2020 to this year, with the role and tasks of not undertaking criminal prosecution as a special prosecutor in this prosecutor's office, according to the instructions and orders of the organizers. and does not initiate criminal proceedings against the organizers and members of a criminal organization, to make it impossible for them to be discovered as perpetrators of the most serious crimes and, in a situation where the legal requirements are met, not to propose that the members of the organization who are deprived of their liberty be ordered into custody, which is accepted and carried out in several criminal cases, i.e. procedures," states the SDT announcement signed by prosecutor/spokesman Vukas Radonjić.

Čađenović denied committing the crimes he was accused of before the prosecutor Miloš Šoškić, as well as the investigating judge of the High Court in Podgorica.

In September 2015, he was elected to the SDT team, which was managed by former GST Milivoje Katnić until February 17 of this year.
