The extra-judicial panel of the High Court in Podgorica extended the custody of Aleksandar Mijajlović, and the custody of 10 other persons charged by the Special State Prosecutor's Office with the criminal offense of creating a criminal organization and the criminal offense of smuggling tobacco products was extended by two months.
The extrajudicial panel rejected the appeals of the suspects' lawyers and accepted the request of the Special State Prosecutor's Office to extend the detention of the arrested.
In the action of the Special State Prosecutor's Office and the Special Police Department, carried out in cooperation with EUROPOL, 11 suspects were arrested for creating a criminal organization and international cigarette smuggling.
Special prosecutors established that those arrested worked under the auspices of two criminal groups.
According to that information, one criminal team was led by Aleksandar Aco Mijajlović and another, as yet unidentified, organizer, whom the prosecutors are looking for.
In the second case, the first defendant is Milan Rogač, who is accused of forming that criminal team.
The Special State Prosecutor's Office (SDT) named policemen Milenko Mića Rabrenović, Radoj Rabrenović, Dragan Backović and Mirko Mijušković as members of Mijajlović's criminal team, as well as Dejan Jokić, Golub Vojinović, Milan Vukadinović and several persons whose identification the prosecutors are working on.
Prosecutors claim that Zoran Žuti Đukanović and Mileta Simanić from Nikšić are in the Rogača team. Allegedly, that criminal group did not cooperate with the team from the so-called Grand Clan in the illegal cigarette smuggling business.
