The conversations of Darko Šarić's people with representatives of institutions testify to suspicious relations with people from the authorities in Serbia, writes the weekly NIN in today's edition.

Since the coming to power of the Serbian Progressive Party in Serbia, in the case of Darko Šarić, controversial decisions favorable to this defendant have not stopped being made, and the latest one, regarding the final verdict for the smuggling of almost six tons of cocaine, is the yet-to-be executed court decision that instead of Zabela from Pozarevac where there is a department for acts of organized crime and where such convicts are usually sent, Šarić refers to the prison in Sremska Mitrovica, writes NIN.

"All this is followed by the publication of a new indictment against him in which the prosecution shows the Sky correspondence where the accused indirectly name the President of the Court of Appeal in Belgrade Duško Milenković and the high-ranking official of the BIA Marko Parezanović, but also mention three nicknames: 'Oskar', '$' (designation for American dollar) and 'Edo', behind which, according to several NIN sources from the investigation, high officials of the government and progressives are hiding," this paper writes.

So far, none of these officials have given explanations for the allegations that they contacted members of the criminal group, as NIN writes. In the indictment, the Prosecutor's Office for Organized Crime presents the Sky communication that relates to the criminal acts that the defendants are charged with, but also another one that mentions disputed contacts ahead of the second decision of the Court of Appeal in 2020, which was supposed to be the final transmission.

"Several sources from the investigation confirmed to us that 'appeal president' and 'appeal' refer to judge Duško Milenković, who is the president of the Court of Appeal in Belgrade, as well as that 'Marko', 'Markus' and 'Markos' refer to Marko Parezanović , head of the 5th administration for counterintelligence protection of the BIA", writes NIN on Thursday.

It is added that in one conversation it is mentioned that the then director of BIA, Bratislav Gašić, entered the office of "Markus", surprised by who was sitting there.
