Serbia: Police inspectors puni
BELGRADE -- Inspectors who worked on a corruption case involving power monopoly EPS have been demoted or retired.
Danas daily reported Monday that Belgrade’s First Criminal Police Department Deputy Chief Dejan Svilar and Inspector Predrag Pavlica were demoted and transferred to other duties, while Inspector Petar Damjanac, who wrote and filed the charges, was sent into retirement.
Serbian police (MUP) Criminal Police Chief Darko Senić refused to comment on the news, and asked reporters to instead file an official query via MUP’s press bureau.
Unofficial sources said that the inspectors who conducted the investigation allegedly decided to proceed without consulting with Interior Minister Dragan Jočić first.
On July 27, the police officially filed charges against former EPS director Ljubomir Gerić.
The charges include three more former executives, who are all suspected of involvement in the signing of contracts with two British companies that cost EPS and the Serbian Government a large sum of money.
According to a MUP press release, Gerić and the other three executives are accused of committing to business dealings from 2001-2004 with the companies Energy Financing Team (ETF) and Interface, which cost EPS US$ 12.7mn (EUR 9.19mn) and the Serbian budget roughly EUR 1.8mn.
However, B92 learned Tuesday that the official statement from the MUP quoted figures significantly lower than those in the actual complaint, filed as KU 1398/07, which states that the state was robbed of EUR 12.2mn
Earlier, British EFT denied involvement in any wrongdoing.
An inquiry commission set up by the parliament in 2004 was not able to gather enough conclusive evidence to facilitate criminal charges against the companies allegedly involved.
