Based on the updated data in the Civil Registry, the PIO Fund listed nine more plaintiffs on the list of plaintiffs who meet the conditions for exercising the right to an old-age pension.

The plaintiffs Radmila Ćuković (65 years and 3 months of life and 35 years and 10 months of insurance experience), Vesna Jovićević (64 years and 10 months of life and 36 years and 8 months of insurance experience), Suzana Milić (65 years and 2 months of life and 35 years and 11 months of insurance experience), Olivera Ražnatović (64 years of age and 36 years and 6 months of insurance experience), Milica Rmandić (65 years and 3 months of life and 37 years and 8 months of insurance experience).

The prosecutor's council has scheduled a continuation of the session tomorrow at 15 pm, where the agenda will include the termination of office for prosecutors who have fulfilled the conditions for old-age pension.

On Monday, GST sent a letter to Acting VDT Maja Jovanović in which he stated that the intention of the Prosecutor's Council is to state the termination of his mandate, because, as he said, "he has allegedly fulfilled the conditions for retirement".

"With that aim, any prosecutor, including me as the chief special prosecutor, unbearably violates the regulations foreseen for the implementation of procedures regarding the fulfillment of the conditions for a pension. If such a decision is reached, Montenegro will surely go down the path of discrimination, violation of the right to work and violations the independence of the prosecutor's office, which was also chosen by Hungary, but almost ten years ago, and which was decided by the Court of Justice in Luxembourg, as well as the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg, and the European Commission also had clear views on this," said Katnić. .

He also explained that the right to the so-called benefited work experience (which experience I achieved due to earlier specific jobs I performed, and which is important, so I remind you, has not yet been determined with certainty), is prescribed for employees, that is, persons who are or have been engaged in particularly demanding and risky occupations and is a form of positive measure by the legislator towards that category of persons, that if they wish, they can exercise their right to an old-age pension earlier than others).

"Such a positive measure, i.e. a right, cannot at the same time constitute an imperative basis for the termination of the employment relationship or the function of the Chief Special Prosecutor, earlier than is the case with other employees, i.e. state prosecutors, whose insurance years are calculated in accordance with the general rules," claims Katnić. in the memo.

Article 18 of the Law stipulates that the age limit for the acquisition of the right to retirement pension established in Article 17, paragraph 1 and 2, is reduced by one year depending on the degree of increase of the insurance period for the insured person, whose insurance period is calculated with increased duration.

1) for every six years spent in a workplace, i.e. a job for which the 12 months effectively spent count as seniority

2) for every five years spent in a workplace, i.e. a job for which the effective 12 months are counted as months of insurance experience:

3) for every four years spent in a workplace, i.e. a job for which the 12 months effectively spent count the insurance experience as 16 months:

4) for every three years spent at the workplace, i.e. a job for which the 12 months effectively spent count the insurance experience as 18 months.
