The judge of the High Court in Podgorica, Zoran Radović, was elected as the president of that court.
This was decided by the Judicial Council after conducting interviews with four registered candidates during the day.
Judges Vesna Kovačević, Amir Đokaj and Predrag Krstonijevic were also in the race for the chair that Boris Savić covered for a decade.
Savić's second term expired on May 6 of this year.
In the work program, Radović dealt with the lack of courtrooms for the special department, stating that the "construction of the Palace of Justice" would permanently solve that problem.
Radović started his career as a prosecutor in the Bar, and from 2009 to June 2019 he was the president of the Basic Court in Podgorica.
After that, he moved to the High Court in Podgorica, in the Special Division, where, among other things, the case of "coup d'état" was prolonged in a repeated procedure that was recently brought to the closing arguments.
Radović was the president of the panel in the trial against the president of the Commercial Court, Blaž Jovanić.
And he was the chairman of the panel that controlled the recent indictment against the defendants for the attack on journalist Olivera Lakić and the murder of Miodrag Kruščić.
