What is happening with the cases pointing to corruption in RTCG and the promise that the acting head of the Agency for the Prevention of Corruption, Dušan Drakić, made at the Parliament session last week, when he said that he would deal with them as soon as he gets to his office, a group of employees at the Public Service asked.
In the statement, signed by Časlav Vujotić on behalf of the group of employees, they recall Drakić's words that "no case is ever lost in a drawer."
"Sat next to the promisee was Pavle Ćupić, president of the ASK Council. Take a look in his closet, just in case. Since he arrived at his current position no less than from the Civic Alliance, Boris Raonić's former NGO. Springboards for the mandate he is now usurping. Ćupić promised transparency when he was brought in, so let's hope that the corruption in RTCG in the drawers has not become transparent?", ask RTCG workers.
DON'T MISS IT
"Why do you claim that no case has been lost when the one when your Agency loudly suspected corruption in the Public Service a year and a half ago disappeared. Before you took it over. We are attaching a copy of that magically unfinished, apparently extinguished, opinion, hoping for an open investigation into the fate of the original. Did anyone stop the process, and if it was ended, then with what, how? It says in that finding, March 1, 2024, that the appointment of Boris Raonić as general director jeopardized the public interest, with a recommendation that in the future the director be elected without violating the integrity of the institution. The RTCG Council was then asked to report to you within a month on the action taken. We do not know if the request ever arrived, but they have shown in part that they 'do not care'. They continued as before, proven by first-instance and second-instance judgments afterwards. With the approval of your institution, it seems?", the statement states.
A group of RTCG employees accused ASK of turning a blind eye to yet another illegal appointment.
"So corrupt, judicially established. We publicly informed you about this in vain a year ago. Will your conscience even prick you, if the finality that we expect these days is affirmative: the members of the Council who voted for Raonić were convicted, it should motivate you, and the illegal mandate that this favorite of the government is abusing has been proven in particular because the state is not reacting. And you are the state, among others, I guess? If you had prevented it, the judiciary would not have complained about arbitrating alone. The verdict of the Higher Court will also mean avoiding the prevention for which you exist. You are at least informed from the media about the manipulative distribution of apartments to the director's close associates, freshly brought in. Newcomer managers were given priority over experienced, long-serving, dedicated workers in the company. Have you investigated anything? Reported to the courts, of course. For now, they are detecting possible corruption in RTCG before you. Who is blindfolding you? According to the information from February of this year, you could at least study how these are members of the RTCG Council, under criminal charges and through the scheduled process, adopted a new budget of over 20 million euros with some items from the previous one unexplained. Nor has the regular annual financial report been published. Say something about that, give a finding, at least praise them?", ask RTCG employees.
They said they want to be publicly informed about the "observed procedures, cases, last year that pointed to a threatened public interest in RTCG, and why they were forgotten", and what the fate of the aforementioned ASK opinion is.
