A prosecutor of the Special Department for Organised Crime, Economic Crime and Corruption in the Bojan Cvijetić et al case filed an indictment against 21 persons for criminal offences of organised crime, illicit traffic in narcotic drugs, smuggling, money laundering and other related criminal offences.

 

When committing the criminal offences some of the defendants used one, and some of them used several “Sky” and “Anom” applications for planning, arranging and committing the criminal offences.

 

According to the allegations in the indictment, in the period between 2019 and 2021, the defendants organised, planned and carried out the international smuggling of narcotic drug cocaine in quantities exceeding 35 kilograms, which they smuggled mainly from the territory of the Netherlands and Belgium to the territory of BiH and which they further hid and smuggled to the territories of the neighbouring countries and to Hungary and Slovenia.

 

Furthermore, they are charged with having smuggled more than 3,000 kilograms of the narcotic drug marihuana - “skunk” from the territory of Albania and neighbouring countries to the territory of BiH, further within BiH and to the countries of the region, as well as with having stored a large amount of the narcotic drug marihuana - “skunk” in the territory of BiH, where a quantity of around 316 kilograms was found and seized. They are also charged with having smuggled a large quantity of cigarettes.

 

It is alleged against the defendants that they, by committing the criminal offences, acquired unlawful property gain in the amount of several millions of BAM, which they injected into legal financial flows by committing the criminal offences of money laundering, by purchasing a large number of real estate (apartments, land) in the area of Banja Luka, East Sarajevo, Laktaši and other places, as well as dozens of mostly expensive motor vehicles.
