State Audit Reveals Financial Irregularities at Novi Beograd Sports Center

A report from the State Audit Institution (DRI) has highlighted financial irregularities regarding a car wash located at the Sportski centar 11. april in Novi Beograd. The self-service car wash, owned by the Novi Beograd 11. april Water Polo Club, operates under a lease agreement with the Sports Center Novi Beograd that lasts for 20 years, from November 2024 to November 2044.

According to the audit, the monthly rent was reduced by 70 percent from an expert-determined value of 64,000 dinars to just 19,000 dinars plus VAT, cited as a reduction for investment purposes. Furthermore, the Sports Center is responsible for paying all utility costs, including electricity and water, for the car wash facility rather than the tenant.
