Brđanin said that the Committee adopted the Report on the Security Assessment of Threats by a majority of votes.
"From my point of view, nothing is unclear anymore. I believe that some MPs still believe that this is not the case. Đukanović, as a former president, has the right to security in accordance with the security assessment. The story about the degree of his vulnerability has been marked as secret information, as well as the information about to the number of security guards," said Brđanin.
As for the relationship with the Minister of the Interior, Danilo Šaranović, Brđanin said that he cannot say that he is hindering him in this case.
"On the contrary. Even after the return, communication is better. I have something that I could say and that is my review of what happened. We cooperate within exactly defined legal deadlines and at this moment we have no open questions," said Brđanin.
He said that there were no omissions when it comes to the actions of the ANB and the police.
"Not wanting to go beyond the scope of jurisdiction, ANB has a greater level of information when it comes to the safety of Đukanović. Based on the operational data, there is no ambiguity. It remains for the prosecution to complete its work. At the moment when the UP received the data, the prosecution received the information and formed case. UP acted according to the requests of the prosecution," Brđanin said.
The committee heard Brđanin and Milić at the initiative of the Democratic Party of Socialists (DPS).
That party initiated the hearing in order, as they announced, to make sure that the competent security services are doing everything to protect the lives of protected persons.
On July 13, "Vijesti" announced that Đukanović had informed Montenegrin authorities that he had received information that an assassination attempt was being prepared against 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.
