The new administration of the Capital City of Podgorica will not submit a criminal complaint against the former executive director of "Čistoća" Andrija Čađenović (DPS), but will hand over to the Special State Prosecutor's Office (SDT) all the documentation that, they claim, indicates abuses at work during his mandate.
This was announced today by Danilo Šaranović, deputy mayor Olivera Injac, at a conference where data and part of the documentation were presented, which, as they said, indicates the non-domestic management of "Čistoc" during the term of office of Čađenović.
"We will send all the documentation to the SDT, which we expect to undertake activities within their jurisdiction as soon as possible. It is our obligation to make the documentation available to the SDT, let them continue to undertake obligations within their jurisdiction. I'm not a lawyer, I've never written criminal reports, but I'm not a legal layman to the extent that I can't recognize illegalities. I am sure that it will not be a problem for the competent state institutions to bring the persons responsible for illegal activities to justice as soon as possible", said Šaranović, answering the journalist's question whether the new city administration will also file criminal charges.
"Vijesti" announced on July that "Čistoća" paid out more than 380 thousand euros in four years in the name of donations, sponsorships and aid, and the former management ordered the employees to delete information about who the money was given to.

The amount of over 380, as the president of the Board of Directors of "Čistoće" Milan Vukadinović told "Vijesta", refers to the period when Andrija Čađenović (DPS) was at the head of that utility company. 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.
Donations were also one of the topics of today's conference.
Šaranović said that the documentation obtained by the new Board of Directors, whose president is Milan Vukadinović, indicates "a huge, prolonged abuse" within the framework of that public company whose founder is the capital.

"The documentation indicates that the situation in the company is alarmingly difficult and the Company's ability to perform its basic function, which is of public interest, is seriously threatened. In Čistoća, out of 31 vehicles used for the removal of municipal waste, more than half are not in operation, only 14 vehicles are in operational condition. Of the 13 dump trucks that are used for the removal of municipal waste, the so-called rubble, only seven are in operation, and the Company also owns six working machines, of which only two are in operational condition", said Šaranović, adding that this may show that they are justified. complaints from fellow citizens that waste removal in the inner city core and suburban settlements is not carried out as it should be.
As he said, in "Cistoca" they found a "graveyard of machines" - "although most of them are only a few years old".
He announced that on the day Čađenović's mandate expired, on June 13, the Company's account had 41.000 euros, and that on the day he took office, it was 13 times more, that is, over 530. He also said that the debts owed to creditors on the day of Čađenović's appointment in February 2019 were lower than 100.000, and now amount to XNUMX million.
Of that, as he said, half are unpaid obligations to another city company "Deponija", "so the business of that city company is also seriously threatened." The entire amount of obligations towards "Deponia", as he said, arose during the term of office of Čađenović. "Vijesti" announced it a few days ago.
Šaranović also said that the payment of one-time aid and donations in election years was a priority for Čađenović "even in relation to the obligation to register machinery". He said that they were most often carried out without valid documentation and without the signature of the person who allegedly submits a request for one-time assistance, and that they were carried out in direct violation of the Law on the Financing of Political Entities and Election Campaigns.
"Which prohibits the payment of such donations and aid during election campaigns, and the dates from the documentation confirm the rule that the level of these payments increases on the eve of the election," said Šaranović, adding that on the day of the parliamentary elections on August 30, 2020, Čađenović from the "Čistoće" fund ” bought a sandwich worth 500 euros.
Along with the statement of the manager of the accounting department, Dragana Vasić, which was published by "Vijesti", he said today that she gave the Board of Directors another one, in which she claims that she had a problem for the last three years, because the Company was operating at a loss, and that the management did not to show a negative business result.
"Since I didn't want to book something that, in my opinion, was not right with the accounting regulations, I asked for a document from the director. In March 2021, the president of the Board of Directors, Stanislava Martinović, in cooperation with the auditors, requested that some orders that we posted be corrected, and she and the director gave that paper to Vojin Katnić to sign. The audit gave a negative opinion for that year, precisely because of these corrections, however, we never received that report", she states.
For the financial statements for 2021, as she added, in March 2022, the management requested that the corresponding parts of the recycling yards managed by the Company in the amount of 785.024 euros be recorded as income.
"I had to follow orders. It was ordered by director Andrija Čađenović and Stanislava Martinović, then president of the Board of Directors. As for the final account for 2022, it was ordered to transfer the equipment from the recycling yards in the amount of 320.331,20 euros", she claims.
That the money was spent outside the household, as Šaranović said, is also shown by the data that the employees of "Čistocë" had to attend seminars at the Special Hospital for Thyroid Gland and Metabolic Diseases in Zlatibor...
"Vijesti" recently published statements by the current president of the Board of Directors that it is possible that "Čistoća" will not have the money to pay the June salary, which Saranović also said today.
