Former Assistant Director of the Police Directorate Zoran Lazovic In early 2020, he went to two northern municipalities to calm down Democratic Party of Socialists (DPS) councilors who threatened to renounce their allegiance to the party and switch sides after the adoption of the Law on Freedom of Religion, which preceded the removal of the thirty-year DPS regime.
Head of the Kavach clan Radoja Zvicer This was reported by Lazović's former associate from that security institution, now a fugitive police inspector. Ljubo Milović.
During several conversations on the now-decrypted Sky app, they refer to Lazović by his initials. Z.
The Law on Freedom of Religion was adopted on December 27, 2019, at two and a half hours after midnight, amid numerous incidents, protests, and arrests of the then opposition.
Milović reported to Zvicer about Lazović's trips to Bijelo Polje and Pljevlja on February 2, 2020, seven months before the parliamentary elections in which the then opposition defeated the regime. Milo Đukanović, which was preceded by daily processions across the country organized in retaliation for the adoption of a law that, as they claimed, planned to seize the property of the Metropolitanate of Montenegro and the Littoral.
And for days before that, they had been talking about marches and counter-marchs, counting how many of "their" people had come out to protest against the defenders of the holy sites.
Hidden behind a nickname MasonOn February 2 of that year, Zvicer stated that "this about the church was premature."
They begin talking about this during an exchange of information about members of the opposing Skalja clan and their plans, when Milović tells him that the then head of the Sector for Combating Organized Crime and Corruption is busy with the church and politics.
He also says that "These people, about misery, made fun of politics and the church", and Zvicer says: "This was premature about the church".
"They calculated well. Z is in Bijelo Polje and Pljevlja, in Pljevlja there will be three DPS committee members who were trying to defect and hand over power to the opposition. Z visited them today. If they do that, if things don't calm down, it will be a disaster," explains the policeman.
He adds that now is their last chance to strike, so Zvicer, commenting on the situation in the country, states that the government did this in a hurry, and then adds:
"If this guy gets Z, there could be war and a change of government. He needs to strengthen his guards."
To this, Milović replies that they cannot approach him: "I can't approach him now, there are ten of them all the time, he drives a blind, and two more have arrived. I can go to my son first, but then everyone who happens to be in Montenegro would be dead," says Milović.
Zvicer then says that they are not allowed to have a son, but also that "we need to watch out for the sniper"...
Milović and Zvicer are on the run, while the two Lazovićs are in custody. The older one was arrested on April 14th of last year, when officers from the Special Police Department also deprived the former chief special prosecutor of his liberty. Milivoj KatnićAn indictment filed by the Special State Prosecutor's Office was recently confirmed against the two of them.
The younger Lazović was deprived of his liberty on July 18, 2022, and on that day Milović evaded arrest.
The two of them and Zvicer are included in the indictments of the Special State Prosecutor's Office, which charges them with being part of the so-called police drug cartel.
This criminal group, gathered around a fugitive with a police badge, Milović, is accused by special prosecutors of smuggling cocaine from South America to Europe for years, and investigators have found evidence that they smuggled several tons of the expensive white powder.
Drugs went to Europe from the port of Bar, but also via Antwerp, Germany and Turkey.
Evidence of this was provided to Montenegrin investigators by Europol, with complete transcripts of conversations conducted through the encrypted Sky ECC application.
Analyzing that evidence, the Special State Prosecutor's Office (SDT) found that Milović involved several colleagues - active and former police officers, mostly his godfathers and friends - in that criminal business.
They all had specific roles in the clan. Allegedly, some were tasked with using their official authority to check whether their honest colleagues were on their trail, and to raise the alarm if there was danger...
Others, however, were tasked with networking those they needed to put dirty money into legal channels.
The SDT charges this group with creating a criminal organization, money laundering, unauthorized production, possession and trafficking of narcotics, and unauthorized possession of weapons and explosives.
They calculated well. Z is in Bijelo Polje and Pljevlja, in Pljevlja there will be three DPS councilors who were trying to defect and hand over power to the opposition. Z visited them today. If they do that, if things don't calm down, it will be a disaster," explains Milović
Zvicer was added to the list of most wanted fugitives a few months ago. Proceedings are being conducted against him in several countries.
It got hot.
It's gotten really heated, I see from the newspapers. A lot of people have taken to the streets, Zvicer stated on January 6 in a conversation with Milović, commenting on the laying of the Christmas tree.
That night, the two of them counted how many citizens were gathered in which place, and Zvicer boasted that his cousin was on the "right" side:
"Yes, there is one of my extremists, Bojan Zvicer, look somewhere on FB. He has a stronger tongue than any politician, history is in his little finger. They were the first liberals in Kotor"...
Transcripts from the once protected Sky application show that Radoje Zvicer and his police mercenaries, who subordinated the public service to the mafia clan led by the Kotor native, as well as other members of the Kavač clan, often talked about the political situation in the country, counted both good and bad Montenegrins, and also agreed on the establishment of the Komitas movement...
They did this during the breaks of planning murders, giving instructions for the destruction of the corpses of sklars, removing evidence of their own crimes...
On the eve of the 2020 parliamentary elections, they exchanged lists of safe votes, and after the fall of the DPS government, they talked about organizing protests, arranging to "boo" representatives of the new government.
