Police Vetting in Montenegro: Who’s Afraid of the Truth?
Welcome to Montenegro’s very own soap opera called “Who’s Guilty?” starring not actors, but police officials, politicians, and media caught in a chaos that’s been brewing for months. Thought vetting was just boring paperwork? Think again! This is a full-blown drama with arrests, accusations, and media wars.
Who’s in the Hot Seat?
The Chief of the Danilovgrad Security Department has been arrested—and he’s not alone. Several high-ranking police officers have found themselves in handcuffs. Meanwhile, Deputy Prime Minister Aleksa Bečić sends a clear message to police commanders: “Don’t protect your own, don’t hide accomplices!” But guess what? That’s exactly what’s happening—silence in the ranks, and evil flourishing.
Boris Bogdanović Doesn’t Hold Back
The head of the Democrats’ parliamentary club, Boris Bogdanović, is calling it like it is. This isn’t just about arrests; it’s a battle against a party mafia that’s ruled the police for decades. “They don’t defend the law, they defend their own people—people they appointed and promoted themselves,” Bogdanović says. Vetting isn’t a problem because of procedures; it’s a problem because it exposes years of hidden dirt.
Nikola Zirojević: Nearly 100 Police Suspended, But No One Prosecuted?
Social Democrat MP Nikola Zirojević throws more fuel on the fire. He says nearly 100 police officers have been suspended during vetting, but almost none have been prosecuted. Is this just a show for the public or a real fight against corruption? He points out that a special police unit is arresting an active chief for creating a criminal organization, adding more twists to the saga.
Aleksa Bečić: The State Won’t Return to Parallel Power Centers’ Control
Bečić declares the state won’t allow itself to be controlled again by “parallel power centers” that hid crime under uniforms for decades. He says the arrests prove these structures were deeply political and illegally protected. “If you’re innocent, don’t fear. If you’re clean, rejoice,” Bečić says, but he also warns the state is “waking up” and will reach everyone.
Media Hysteria and Political Accusations
Of course, this doesn’t happen quietly. Media linked to certain politicians hysterically attack vetting, calling it political persecution and party witch hunts. But as Bogdanović says, vetting doesn’t ask for party membership—it asks for the truth. And that’s what hurts those who enjoyed system protection for decades.
What’s Next?
Will justice finally win, or will this end as just another political soap opera? Will vetting reveal all the dirty secrets or will everything be swept under the rug? One thing’s clear—panic is huge, and the screams of those hiding the truth for years only prove how important this fight is.
Conclusion
Vetting in Montenegro’s police isn’t just a procedure; it’s a real battle for the country’s future. Will the state free itself from parallel power centers, or will this be just another show for the public? Stay tuned, because this is just the beginning of one of Montenegro’s most dramatic stories.
