The candidates for RTCG general director request from the Bar Association that RTCG lawyer Zorica Đukanović be prosecuted and that sanctions be imposed on her.

They claim that Đukanović violated several articles of the Code of Professional Ethics of Montenegro's lawyers.

The report against Đukanović was signed by Časlav Vujotić, Andrijana Kadija, Slaven Knezović, Sabrija Vulić, Žarko Božović, Snežana Burzan Vuksanović, Srđan Čović and Vladimir Maraš.

"Zorica Đukanović has been an RTCG lawyer since October 2021. She was paid to protect the interests of the client, that is, RTCG, and the public interest. We are reporting her because she used the engagement not to protect her house but an individual and - an outsider: the illegally elected CEO of RTCG Boris Raonic. She did not represent RTCG in the disputes, she did not deal with determining the correctness of the conducted competition, but justifying the selection of only one of the candidates, at any cost right, she tried to challenge the legitimacy of the plaintiffs Nikola Marković and Srđan Čović when they pointed to the violation of the law," reads the announcement of the candidate for general director of RTCG.

They also claim that Đukanović put herself "in the service of the one who usurped the house that pays for it".

"She tried to discredit the people who represent - the processes then showed - the truth. She did not check whether the 'car go' but those who point to it. The Latin proverb reads 'ne nuntium necare' (do not kill the messenger). Also, she represented RTCG in cases where even the Legal Service did not find a reason to file lawsuits, correctly in cases where it was supposed to be charged from other employees without any legal and logical basis, the exact amount that Raonic and the Legal Service "negotiated" and paid. Those actions were not in favor of Boris Raonic, who was later found by the court to be an unqualified candidate. He tried to deal with the illegality and harm of his appointment. And that with the complicity of Zorica Đukanović. Irresponsibility and disloyalty to RTCG has passed to hypocrisy during the last, fourth, appointment of her favorite as general director. Faced with the legal fact that one person can be appointed to that position twice, at the session of the RTCG Council on August 29, her letter was discussed where she sought justification for the appointment through that measures," the announcement reads.

They add that in previous court cases, lost by her and Raonic, Đukanović argued that Raonic was legally elected.

"Now, contrary to her 'truth' at the time, she points out that her protégé was - illegally elected. Which gives him the right to run again. Sometimes illegally, sometimes legally appointed in her inconsistent behavior. As he needs it. To him, not to the public service According to the last variant, it turns out that he was never the director. It turns out that RTCG spent that time without Boris Raonic. ) or the dismissals of that era. The consequences of that lawlessness are numerous - from financial to human destinies, and all with the help of the lawyer whose unscrupulous work we point out. Such behavior could perhaps be relativized that Zorica Đukanović is the personal lawyer of the candidate Raonic and receives money from him for her engagement. But no, because she was hired by RTCG, the media service of all citizens. It is about unethical behavior and disloyalty to the client. The client is RTCG, not Boris Raonic," the statement says.
