Balkan criminal clans and political corruption allegations
Overview
Leaked communications from the Sky ECC encrypted application have surfaced, alleging deep connections between organized crime clans and government officials in the Balkans.
In Serbia, intercepted messages from 2020 suggest links between the Darko Šarić drug trafficking clan and high-ranking officials. Investigative reports indicate that individuals using aliases allegedly discussed judicial interference and the possibility of using presidential pardons to correct unfavorable court decisions. Some communications also contain unverified claims regarding the financing of the Serbian Progressive Party (SNS).
In Montenegro, whistleblower Miloš Medenica released Sky ECC data and photographs alleging that the Škaljari criminal clan influenced the Montenegrin government in 2020. The allegations suggest the clan financed the Prava Crna Gora political party and communicated with leadership regarding security sector personnel and legal implementations involving the Special State Prosecutor's Office.
