Closing arguments began today at the Court of Appeals of Montenegro in the case of the murder of police inspector Slavoljub Šćekić.

"Today, the presentation of closing arguments in the case of the accused Saša Boreta and others began at the Court of Appeal of Montenegro. Closing arguments were presented by the state prosecutor at the Supreme State Prosecutor's Office of Montenegro and the representative of the injured party, the Šćekić family. The continuation of the presentation of closing arguments is scheduled for July 17.07.2025, XNUMX," the Court of Appeal said in a statement.

The trial for the murder of Šćekić before the Appellate Court panel has started again after the Constitutional Court overturned the verdict that sentenced Ljubo Bigović, Saša Boreta, Milan Šćekić and Ljubo Vujadinović to 30 years in prison for the murder of Šćekić, and the now deceased Alan Kožar to six years and ten months for setting off three explosions at the construction site of the "Splendid" hotel in Bečići.

According to the abrogated verdict, the accused Milan Šćekić and Vujadinović killed a police inspector on August 30, 2005, and Boreta and Bigović incited them to that crime. According to the abrogated verdict, they did this because the police officer Šćekić was on their trail leading the investigation into attempted extortion and a series of bomb attacks on the then construction site of the "Splendid" hotel.
