Martinović: Supervisors in national parks will have means of coercion in order to fight poachers more effectively

The attackers Vojin Prenkić and Dušan Klikovac were each sentenced to six months in prison for assaulting an official in the performance of official duties, but were acquitted of the charge of illegal hunting, although they admitted it. The question is whether this punishment is enough to send an adequate message to poachers?

The director of the National Parks of Montenegro, Vladimir Martinović, announces that their supervisors will soon have means of coercion in the fight against poaching.

Although the situation is better than before, Martinović states that even during the fishing ban on Lake Skadar, poaching was not eradicated.

In an interview with Vijesti Television, he also talked about whether he expects to be replaced, considering that he comes from the now opposition URE, and the functions are still largely divided on a political basis.
