The head of "Monteput" forgot to report about 45.000 euros

The Agency for the Prevention of Corruption found that the director of "Monteput" Jonuz Mujević violated the Law on the Prevention of Corruption by not reporting about 45.000 euros of his income and that of his family for two years.

This can be seen from the decision announced yesterday by the institution headed by Acting Director Savo Milašinović.

The institution found that he violated the Law in the part that concerns the submission of incorrect and incomplete data in his property records.

In the explanation of the decision signed by Milašinović, it is stated that in 2017 alone, Mujević did not report a little more than 11.100 euros of difference income from "Monteput", then almost 5.900 from the Investment Development Fund (IRF), but also 10.000 euros from "Inventa". In the same period, he did not report the income of his wife Enida Mujević from the Center for Ecotoxicological Testing (CETI) for several reasons (winter room, transportation, work contract) worth almost 3.200 euros.

A year later, the document adds, he did not report a little more than 2.800 euros from the IRF, the difference from "Monteput" of a little more than 8.800 euros, as well as the difference that his wife received from CETI in the amount of 5.151 euros. They point out that he did not report his share in the agricultural cooperative "Uzor" from Rožaj and his daughter Majda Mujević's share in the local companies "Afmena" and "Haser".

Mujević told the Agency in a written statement that he properly reported the income from "Monteput", and that the other funds refer to past work and compensation for unused vacation and the award of the Board of Directors for the basic successful operation of the company in that period.

In the part related to IRF, he said that he was previously a member of the Board of Directors, but that fees and bonuses are paid later after the adoption of the financial statements.

"He further pointed out that he did not want to conceal the mentioned data, but considered that due to the reasons that they refer to the year 2016, he is not obliged to report them," the document states.

The same explanation refers to 10.000 euros from "Inventa", stating that he received it in the name of a debt from 2014 for the provision of consulting services.

When it comes to his wife's income, he said that he did not know that he should also report her winter holidays and transportation.

Ćerka did not report her share in the companies because she claims that at that moment they did not start economic activities and therefore had no income, but neither did her share in "Uzor" because "the cooperative never started work", submitting the decision of the Commercial Court on the initiation of liquidation proceedings. From the answer of the Tax Administration, it is stated in the document of the Agency, it can be seen that he, however, had a stake in that legal entity in May of this year.

He claims that he did not submit complete, "but by no means incorrect" data to the Agency. He added that he was not sufficiently familiar with the rules in this area.

A fine of up to 2.000 euros is threatened for failure to submit accurate and complete property records.

The director of "Monteput" recently submitted an extraordinary property card, which deals with the increase in property worth over 5.000 euros.

In that card, he reported that his daughter became the owner of a "Volkswagen Tiguan" from 2016, but also that he had 7.300 euros in cash.

Mujević himself reported that he had 2.500 euros in cash. In the regular annual report, he reported that he had 17.000 euros in cash at the end of last year. The extraordinary property certificate is submitted within 30 days from the day of the increase of property whose value is over 5.000 euros.
