Outoging Serbian Prime Minister Ana Brnabic today received an "Oscar" award for corruption from the opposition parties in the Serbian parliament, who called on her to hand over the award to President Aleksandar Vucic, BGNES reported.
Opposition MPs held up golden statuettes as an allusion to the code name "Oscar" in intercepted communications of a criminal network suspected to be directly linked to Vucic.
The organization in question was headed by Darko Saric, a Montenegrin drug trafficker.
A few days ago CRIC - Crime and Corruption Reporting Network revealed in its journalistic investigation that, according to the French police, Darko Saric's drug cartel was assisted by the former Minister of the Interior, Nebojsa Stefanovic - codenamed Edo, and the head of the Security Service and information of Serbia (BIA) Marko Parezanovic - Markus. Both are members of Vučić's Serbian Progressive Party (SPP).
They received their orders from a man whose code name was "Oscar".
Opposition parties asked why no one dares to say what is absolutely clear - "Oscar is actually the then and current president of Serbia, Aleksandar Vucic". Critics of the head of state believe that he guided and protected the criminal organization from justice in neighboring Serbia.
"Oscar is a man whom the mafia calls an 'all-powerful official,' and only he can solve all problems," the Freedom and Justice Party said in a statement, quoted by Danas newspaper.
BGNES reminds that today at 12:00 Bulgarian time the constituent session of the Serbian National Assembly was resumed.
First Deputy Prime Minister Ivica Dacic will lead the government of Serbia until a new cabinet is elected, replacing Ana Brnabic. She will take the position of Speaker of the Parliament.
The leaders of the largest opposition coalition "Serbia Against Violence", Marinika Tepic and Miroslav Aleksic, today expressed their disagreement with Burnabic's candidacy.
The newly formed Serbian parliament began its constituent session on February 6, when the mandates of the deputies were confirmed. On March 11, the people's representatives were supposed to elect a chairman, but the meeting was postponed.
Parliamentary and local elections in the country were held on December 17. They were defined by the opposition and the international community as "dishonest" because of the total dominance of President Vučić in the political and media space.
The European Union issued a harsh resolution against Belgrade, calling for a full international investigation into election violations. /BGNES
