"Cleanliness" cleared the list: They poured money, kept secrets from whom

Podgorica "Purity” paid out over 380 euros in the name of donations, sponsorships and assistance in four years, and the former management ordered the employees to delete data on who the money was given to.

The amount of over 380, as the president of the Board of Directors of "Čistoće" told "Vijesti" Milan Vukadinović, refers to the period when he was at the head of that utility company Andrija Čađenović (DPS). Of that, in the last year and in five months of this year, according to Vukadinović, "Čistoća" gave over 185 in donations, sponsorships and aid.

According to the documentation that "Vijesti" had access to, the analytical account cards do not contain all the information about whose accounts the payments were made to, and the accounting department of "Čistoće" claims that this is because they are deleted from 2021 at the request of the management and former CEO.

According to unofficial information from the newsroom, there are decisions in "Čistoća" based on which payments were made. Yesterday, the Company did not respond to "News" in this regard. Yesterday, "Vijesti" sent that company a request for free access to information for inspection of decision records, for the period from the beginning of 2021 until June 13, when Čađenović's mandate ended.

"Čistoća" did not answer whether they had published information about payments on the website.

Work reports from 2014 to 2021 are available on the website. The last one, from 2021, however, is not opened for some reason, and the report from 2020 does not contain data on donations, assistance and sponsorships, but in it, in one sentence, it is only mentioned that the Company provided assistance to employees in that year.

Čađenović did not respond to "Vijesta" at that time either, but subsequently stated in his response that if the salary for June is not paid, it will be the sole responsibility of the new management, not his. He also denied the claims of the Board of Directors that there is a debt to suppliers, and for the purchase of phones for the members of the previous Board of Directors, for which the remaining installments should be paid for the next year and a half, he said that in those devices, the members of the Board "had both personal data and data related to the work of the company they managed, as well as that for these reasons they did not find it appropriate to discharge them in such a state". "Certainly, they expressed their willingness to take over the payments for the remaining installments for the phones," he said.

The board of directors, among other things, accused Čađenović of leaving behind vehicles for transporting municipal waste that have not been registered "for almost a full year."
