Members of the Committee for Security and Defense will listen to the directors of the public and secret police on Monday, regarding the information that an assassination attempt was being prepared on Milo Đukanović.
As announced by the Parliament of Montenegro, the heads of the Police Administration and the National Security Agency will attend the control hearing Zoran Brđanin i Boris Milić will announce how the security sector acted in the case of intelligence information about the preparation of the assassination of the former president of Montenegro.
The session will be closed to the public.
On July 13, the news announced that Đukanović had informed Montenegrin competent authorities that he had received information that an assassination was being prepared for him.
"The former president received the above-mentioned information from certain international officials from the intelligence community, and with that information he informed the state authorities," Đukanović's office answered at the time when asked if anyone from the security sector informed him that his security was at risk, i.e. , that his assassination is being prepared.
It was not answered who and when Djukanović was given this information.
A source close to Đukanović said that a high-ranking foreign military official from Kosovo informed him that an organized criminal group from a neighboring country was allegedly planning to carry out an assassination, in conjunction with the security services of another neighboring country.
"According to Article 18 of the Law on the President of Montenegro, upon termination of office, the president has the right to permanent personal security in accordance with the security assessment determined by the competent authority, in accordance with the law. In accordance with the positive regulations, the National Security Agency is responsible for preparing reports on the security assessment of threats," the Police Administration announced at the time.
Answering the question of whether Djukanovic's security has been increased, his office has announced that it has been reduced.
"Changes in security in that period took place to the extent that security at the place of residence of the former president was abolished during the day shift".
They also pointed out that the Montenegrin security services did not call Đukanović or his security coordinator for an interview, in order to point out the potential danger.
