Economic crime investigations in Podgorica

Overview

Authorities in Podgorica, Montenegro, have conducted investigations into various forms of economic crime involving foreign nationals and local businesses.

In one operation in the Mareza area, police arrested nine foreign nationals, including citizens from Ukraine, Moldova, and Slovakia. A 28-year-old Ukrainian woman is suspected of organizing a group to conduct unauthorized banking, stock exchange, insurance, and economic activities. During searches of a villa and vehicles, officials seized over 50,000 euros in cash, more than 100 computers, 82 mobile phones, and various electronic devices. Several detainees were also charged with violating the Law on Foreigners due to illegal stays.

Separately, criminal charges have been filed against the company ‘L. DOO’ and two of its executive directors, identified as D. T. (65) and M. P. (36), for suspected tax and contribution evasion. Authorities allege the firm reported lower daily cash revenues than actually earned across 110 business units, resulting in a reported shortfall of approximately 6.46 million euros. The suspected unpaid income tax and contributions are estimated to have caused more than 1.31 million euros in damage to the budgets of Montenegro and Podgorica.
