The sacked Inspector General of the National Security Agency (ANB) Artan Kurti will again sue the Government in the Administrative Court, and will also file a criminal complaint with the Special State Prosecutor's Office (SDT) against Prime Minister Milojko Spajić, who proposed his dismissal.

Kurti claims that the Government did not comply with the first judgment that annulled his dismissal in the retrial of his dismissal.

He expects that the court will accept his lawsuit again and return him to work, while the government did not want to comment on anything.

Artan Kurti received the new decision on the dismissal of the Inspector General of the ANB, which was passed by the Government last Thursday, today.

"I find the reasons given in the explanation of the decision to be so ridiculous. I will certainly file a new complaint with the Administrative Court. I will submit a criminal complaint to the SDT," Kurti pointed out.

And that against Prime Minister Milojko Spajić, who proposed a new dismissal of Kurti, acting according to the ruling of the Administrative Court, which recently overturned the first decision on dismissal.

As the Law on Administrative Disputes obliged the Government to pass another act within 30 days, they decided to dissolve it again.

"... Especially bearing in mind the legal provision that a person who, in addition to the general conditions for establishing working relationships in a state body, must have at least five years of work experience in the security sector can be appointed as the Inspector General of the Agency...", it is written in The government's decision on the dismissal of Kurti.

Kurti claims that after his first lawsuit, the Government realized that he was going to lose the case and expressly amended the Law on ANB, introducing the condition of five years of work experience, which is valid for establishing an employment relationship with the Agency's employees. He points out that this cannot be applied to him.

"They apply the law retroactively in a specific case. So, the conditions of five years and the condition from Article 27 A are the conditions of the new law, they say that I do not meet those conditions. Malten, these are the conditions for appointment, not for dismissal,'' said Kurti.

Responding to Kurti's first complaint, the Government stated that they have the discretion to appoint and dismiss the inspector general who is responsible for their work. They also say that he was appointed by the previous Government of Dritan Abazović, which adopted his work report, and whose mandate ended.

"44. The Government did not believe in the success of the work and performance of tasks of Inspector General Artan Kurti, so a decision on his dismissal was made accordingly," reads the Government's decision on the dismissal of Kurti.

Kurti, on the other hand, says that the Administrative Court said that the Government has no discretion to dismiss him.

"The government does not respect the ruling of the Administrative Court at all, but says that it does not trust my work, without giving any reason why it does not trust it." The Administrative Court also stated in its verdict that the fact that the mandate of the 43rd Government has ended is not a reason for the mandate of the Inspector General to end, given that I was appointed for a period of five years. This could not remain unknown to the Government", said Kurti

Kurti will file a criminal complaint against the prime minister and a new lawsuit to the Administrative Court tomorrow, and he expects the court to cancel the new decision on his dismissal.

"That I am convinced that the Administrative Court will decide on the merits in the retrial and that I will have to be reinstated." How they will respect it, whether they will respect it, that is their matter, not mine,'' Kurti said.

Today, Televizija Vijesti did not manage to get a comment from the Government on the decision to dismiss Kurti and the announced new lawsuit and criminal complaint.
