Podgorica police officers seized two starting pistols while searching for illegal weapons in the Podgorica and Spuž areas.
According to unofficial information from "Vijesti", they searched the houses and facilities used by Radoslav Gile Stanišić, Vidoje Stanišić, Filip Popović, Nikola Marković and Dragiša Bulatović.
The same source from the security service claims that these are persons of operational interest.
"Officers of the Podgorica Security Department today, in continuation of activities of a preventive and repressive nature, and in connection with previous events related to the misuse of firearms, conducted searches at five locations in the Podgorica settlement of Zagorič, as well as in the territory of Spuža. Searches were conducted at persons of operational interest from the RS, VS, FP, NM and DB. On that occasion, two starting pistols without appropriate documentation were seized, for which the existence of elements of a violation from the Weapons Law will be assessed," the Police Directorate informed "Vijesti".
Gile Stanišić - an alleged member of the Kavača criminal clan, was wounded a few nights ago, but at the time he refused to cooperate with the police and say who did it.
Police officers were notified of this after he showed up at the Emergency Room of the Podgorica Clinical Center with a gunshot wound to the leg.
According to unofficial information, the police suspect that he was injured by negligence, and after the city was blockaded, a citizen of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Lazar Božić (29), was arrested.
DON'T MISS IT
A "Walter" pistol with 15 bullets was found in the armored vehicle he was in.
"Last night, after midnight, a person named RS (40) with a gunshot wound to the left lower leg came to the Emergency Center in Podgorica for medical assistance. Police officers immediately undertook a series of activities within their jurisdiction to establish all the facts and circumstances under which RS was injured, who on this occasion did not provide more detailed information about the event itself and refused to cooperate in order to uncover the crime and establish all the circumstances. A blockade of the city was set up, several people were checked and brought to official premises in order to establish the circumstances under which RS was injured. Through these activities, by checking an armored vehicle of the brand 'Audi', and a person named LB (29), a citizen of Bosnia and Herzegovina, close to RS, who was inside it, police officers found a pistol of the brand 'Walter' with 15 rounds of ammunition without a serial number, which was confiscated," the statement states.
Podgorica residents Vidoje Stanišić and Dragiša Bulatović are accused of wounding Igor Krstović at the end of January 2020.
Their detention was terminated even earlier because the High Court panel failed to reach a first-instance verdict in the case within three years.
They are charged with committing the crimes of creating a criminal organization and attempted murder by aiding and abetting.
Both have denied the allegations.
However, the prosecution charges them with having become members of a criminal organization formed by a person unknown to the investigative authorities in the second half of 2019, alongside other unidentified individuals.
"And they agreed to carry out the orders and instructions of the organizers, to find places where the objects and means of committing criminal acts would be destroyed."
The indictment states that biological traces of the accused Stanišić and Bulatović were found at the place where the burned vehicle was used in the crime.
However, the Special State Prosecutor's Office has not yet revealed who fired multiple shots at Krstović at the end of January 2020.
26 shots were fired from an automatic rifle into Krstović's car, and according to unofficial information, seven ended up in his body.
After the shooting, he underwent surgery at the Clinical Center.
Filip Popović is one of those convicted for the bombing of the house of former head of the Remand Prison, Predrag Spasojević.
