In Montenegro, it has come to light that a Turkish citizen, identified as EO, was arrested in connection with over one million euros in suspicious transactions. Today, Special Prosecutor Vukas Radonjić announced that a suspect was placed in detention for 72 hours following questioning.

The Special State Prosecutor’s Office (SDT) reported that the individual was taken into custody due to allegations of money laundering.

It is alleged that between April 2023 and March 2024, the suspect used these funds in Montenegro while being aware that the money stemmed from criminal activities—specifically violations related to sports competitions—and falsely represented the facts about the source of these funds. The suspect made cash purchases amounting to 399,500 euros for a “Lamborghini Aventador with a 6.5 V12,” 95,000 euros for a “Porsche Cayenne 3.0,” 34,980 euros for a “Range Rover Velar,” and 215,000 euros for a “Mercedes AMG G63.” Additionally, the suspect acquired a residential space of 98 m2 and two parking spaces (each 12 and 13 m2) in Podgorica for 375,000 euros, totaling a money laundering amount of 1,229,480.00 euros.

All movable and immovable property acquired through the alleged criminal activities will undergo a financial investigation by the Special State Prosecutor’s Office, with the aim of their permanent confiscation.

“The data, notifications, and evidence regarding the criminal offense and the perpetrator were gathered through a collaborative effort of the Special State Prosecutor’s Office, the Special Police Department, and the Financial Intelligence Sector of the Police Directorate,” states the SDT announcement.
