Based on the collected evidence, the Assembly of the Association filed a criminal complaint against the dismissed director in July 2020. The report was later amended due to the suspicion that the dismissed director manipulated his position in the Association, falsifying documents and falsely presenting himself. When Vučić was already dismissed and relieved of his duties in the Association at an extraordinary session in June 2020, he convened his own assembly of the Association in August, by which he returned to head the Agency. Instead of the handing over of the criminal report marking the beginning of the investigation of serious allegations of serious crimes, this marked the beginning of sabotaging the investigation, delaying, manipulating and falsifying documents. Here, the story goes beyond the conflict within a non-governmental organization and suspicions of alienation of donor European funds and becomes a story about potential corruption among judges and prosecutors in the Basic Court of Banja Luka and the District Public Prosecutor's Office in Banja Luka.

Car, apartments, renovation of private houses

“Agencija za saradnju, edukaciju i razvoj”  is a non-governmental, non-profit organization from Banja Luka that has existed for fifteen years. It implements sustainable development projects, including economic and social development, environmental protection as well as humanitarian projects. More precisely, that Agency dealt with these topics until the Assembly of the Association revealed that the first man of the Agency used money from European funds for private purposes.

“Agencija za saradnju, edukaciju i razvoj” determined through an internal investigation that the Executive Director bought a Škoda Kodiak vehicle with the Agency's money, which he registered with the Agency but did not report the purchase. Until the discovery of that purchase and later seizure by the police, the executive director Vučić used the vehicle for personal needs. Through internal investigation and review of documentation, the members of the Association determined that with the money of the Agency for Cooperation, Education and Development, the dismissed executive director bought an apartment in Belgrade and renovated a family house in Banja Luka. It was also determined that he spent the card owned by the Association for personal needs, during his vacations in Greece. In total, about 40,000 KM of the Association's money were spent from the card, and the members of the Association, for Guerrilla Info, say that it is interesting, as Vučić admitted at the Association's assembly, that the Task Manager of the Delegation of the European Union to Bosnia and Herzegovina, Vlado Pandurevic, was a frequent guest of the Executive Director during the “ironing” of the official card. Most of the Agency's projects are funded by the European Union Delegation to Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Zoran Mićić, President of the Assembly of the Agency for Cooperation, Education and Development at the time when it was discovered that the director spends the agency's money as his own, told Guerrilla Info, that he and some other members of the Association immediately reported everything to the competent institutions. He explains, however, that they hit the wall because the Basic Court in Banja Luka persistently meets the dismissed director and his lawyer Dragan Stupar, accepting the fake assembly of the Association, which returned Vučić to the position of executive director, as valid. The Basic Court in Banja Luka has been doing this persistently for two years, although the District Court in Banja Luka has on several occasions accepted the appeal against the decisions of the Basic Court and returned the case to the Basic Court. Due to all that, a criminal report was submitted to the Republic Public Prosecutor's Office of the Republika Srpska, for all irregularities.

Based on the criminal report submitted to the District Public Prosecutor's Office on the order of the pre-trial judge, in August 2020, members of the Department for Suppression of Economic Crime of the Banja Luka Police Administration seized complete program and financial documentation as well as computers from the Association with the aim of preventing the destruction of evidence and conducting expertise in the investigative procedure, which was requested by the Assembly of the Association. Unfortunately, although the police submitted a report to the Prosecutor's Office in December 2020 on the existence of a well-founded suspicion that the criminal offence of abuse of office and authority was committed, since then, despite numerous interventions, the Banja Luka Public Prosecutor's Office has not taken any action. This prevented the Association from working, fifteen people were left without income, another twenty-five without fees and twenty students without scholarships “, Zoran Mićić told Gerila.info.

The Basic Court is procrastinating, the District Prosecutor's Office is not conducting an investigation?

Mićić also says that the OJT Banja Luka left space and time to the dismissed executive director to, by falsifying documents and forming a new fictitious assembly chaired by his lawyer Dragan Stupar, get a decision four times at the Basic Court in Banja Luka, authorizing him to represent the Association. Mićić says that the Basic Court issued several documents to Vučić's lawyer in one day, which cannot be obtained in one day, but a certain period must pass from each issuance.

Although the President of the Court Milenko Milekić and the Secretary of the Court Vladimir Jurišić were informed about all irregularities in the work of the Basic Court, it happens that the President of the Civil Division, Judge Biljana Vučetić, three times issues a decision in non-litigation procedure annulling the decision of the president of the non-litigation department and in November 2021 on the basis of falsified documents again issues the same decision which the District Court has twice revoked and declared illegal”, explains Mićić for Gerila.info.

Guerilla's questions about what has been done so far in the mentioned investigation on the basis of criminal charges, as well as what has been done on reports of corruption in the Prosecutor's Office due to this case, are not answered specifically by the Prosecutor's Office. They state that they do not understand which dismissed director is in question. Questions about corruption in the OJT were ignored.

Due to everything, on December 22 last year, the members of the Association submitted the criminal report to the Republic Public Prosecutor's Office of the Republika Srpska.

We asked the Basic Court why the procedure regarding the change of registration of persons for representation takes years, why the judge constantly makes the same decisions, despite the rejection of such decisions in the District Court as illegal. They respond from this court that they cannot provide more information until the appeal procedure is completed.

“For these reasons, we cannot provide information or comment on the course of the proceedings until the Banja Luka District Court decides on this legal matter, and this court will then respect the legal reasons expressed in the second instance verdict,” the Banja Luka Basic Court said in a response.

The Republic Public Prosecutor's Office of the Republika Srpska confirmed, for Gerila.info, that the aforementioned criminal charges are pending with the acting prosecutor “who will check the allegations of the filed charges in the next period”.

Due to the fact that the Basic Court meets the dismissed director and his lawyer in different ways and ignores the second instance decisions of the District Court against the judges of the Banja Luka Basic Court, a number of ACED employees filed a complaint with the Office of the Disciplinary Prosecutor at the High Judicial and Prosecutorial Council of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Subsequent inspection of the business documentation of the Agency for Cooperation, Education and Development established that the dismissed executive director damaged the Fund of the President of the Republic by about 150,000 KM, bringing the total embezzlement to half a million KM.

Namely, the Agency received from the Fund of the President of the Republic the project “Building infrastructure for the needs of children with asthma – Project Educational tourism in nature – tourism development potential of the Republika Srpska” worth 70,000 KM. It was later determined that another project worth 80,000 KM was approved, which was not known to other ACED members.

Expensive furniture and equipment instead of the Center for Sick Children

An infrastructure project in nature for children with asthma was supposed to be built in Mlinska Rijeka near Čelinac within the Prima prom tourist complex, but that never happened. Guerrilla info is in possession of extensive documentation and invoices that show that the Agency, through a project obtained from the President of the Republic, bought construction materials, luxury furniture, laptops and computer equipment. Part of the money was spent on the company Prima prom.

Zoran Mićić, who was elected the new director of the Association by the decision of the ACED Assembly, informed the Cabinet of the President of Republika Srpska and Đuka Huremović, Secretary General of the Office of the President of Republika Srpska, about the misuse of funds from the project of the President of the Republic. The Cabinet of the President of RS was informed that 70,000 KM were spent inappropriately and that the engagement of members of the Association prevented the misuse of another 80,000 KM, which was captured on the Association's account by the quick reaction. There was no reaction from the cabinet of the President of Republika Srpska. The office of the President of the Republic did not answer Guerrilla Info's questions regarding this project, which they financed.

Gerila.info is in possession of an excerpt from the Association's account, which shows that the dismissed director paid 20,000 and 23,200 KM to his own private account on two occasions, on February 19 and 20, 2020. He also used the account of the Association to pay a deposit to a bank for a private housing loan, on April 21, 2020. A total of 30,500 KM.

The new management of the Agency for Cooperation, Education and Development (the procedure for proving the right to enrol and represent is still ongoing at the Basic Court) also informed the European Union Delegation in Bosnia and Herzegovina about embezzlement and misappropriation of European funds intended for projects in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Not only was the EU delegation informed, but also the Special Representative of the European Union and the Head of the Delegation of the European Union to BiH, Johan Satler. No response or reaction was noticed.

Zoran Mićić also reported to the EU delegation in BiH life threats by some employees of the European Union Delegation. Criminal charges were also filed against Mićić by the lawyer of the dismissed director of the Association Duško Vučić, Dragan Stupar.

Duško Vučić's lawyer, Dragan Stupar, told the Gerila.info journalist that he could not talk about the details of the case, but claimed that in the case of a criminal report against his client, it could not be a crime, as internal audits showed. He denies that criminal charges have been filed against him, and says that Zoran Mićić included a lot of people in the criminal charges. He also claims that it was finally confirmed in court that Vučić is the legal director of the Association.

Duško Vučić, for Gerila.info, notes that all the allegations from the question we sent him regarding the misuse of the funds of the Agency headed by him were incorrect. He also claims that various controls showed that this was not the case. He also claims that the party that reported him for illegal actions illegally took control of the association. He states that he sued Mićić and some media outlets due to earlier allegations in the media. In the answer for Gerila.info, Vučić questions the moral credibility of his former colleagues from ACED.

“In 13 years of operation, ACED has been entrusted with 82 contracts / projects. As far as I can estimate, this is an extremely high number – not only for BiH, but also for the region. If there was a suspicion of one donor going into the work of ACED and into all the financial and program reports that have passed countless controls, I am sure that ACED would not have received so much trust from institutions that base their work on trust. And if ACED had not been so successful in its work, it would not have had significantly more than 1 million KM in business accounts in May 2020. But I also think that there would be no attempt at a hostile takeover, as was the case in June 2020 by organizing an illegal session of the Assembly with illegitimate members by Zoran Mićić “, writes, among other things, Duško Vučić's answer for Gerila.info.

However, Gerila.info is in possession of the record from the ACEDA assembly from June 2020, where Vučić, after asking some members of the assembly about the misuse of funds, admitted that he spent the association's funds for personal needs, disputing only the amount of money spent.

Na osnovu prikupljenih dokaza skupština Udruženja je u julu 2020. godine protiv smijenjenog direktora podnijela krivičnu prijavu. Prijava je, kasnije,zbog sumnje da je smijenjeni direktor manipulisao pozicijom u Udruženju, falsifikujući dokumente i lažno se predstavljajući, dopunjena. Vučić je, kada je već na vanrednoj sjednici u junu 2020. bio smjenjen i razriješen dužnosti u Udruženju, u avgustu sazvao sopstvenu skupštinu Udruženja kojom se vratio na čelo Agencije. Umjesto da predavanje krivične prijave bude početak istrage ozbiljnih navoda o teškim krivičnim djelima to je označilo početak sabotiranja istrage, odugovlačenja, manipulisanja i lažiranja dokumentacije. Tu priča izlazi iz okvira sukoba unutar jedne nevladine organizacije i sumnje u otuđenje donatorskih evropskih sredstava i postaje priča o potencijalnoj korupciji među sudijama i tužiocima u Osnovnom sudu Banjaluka i Okružnom javnom tužilaštvu Banjaluka.

Automobil, stanovi, renoviranje privatnih kuća

Agencija za saradnju, edukaciju i razvoj nevladina je, neprofitna organizacija iz Banjaluke koja postoji petnaest godina. Provodi održive projekte razvoja, uključujući ekonomski i razvoj društva, zaštitu okoline kao i humanitarne projekte. Tačnije, ta Agencija time se bavila dok na skupštini Udruženja nije otkriveno da prvi čovjek Agencije novac iz evropskih fondova koristi u privatne svrhe.

Skupština Agencije za saradnju, edukaciju i razvoj je internom istragom utvrdila da je izvršni direktor novcem Agencije kupio vozilo Škoda Kodiak koje je registrovao na Agenciju ali kupovinu nije prijavio. Vozilo je do otkrivanja te kupovine i kasnije zaplijene od strane policije izvršni direktor Vučić koristio za lične potrebe. Internom istragom i pregledom dokumentacije članovi Udruženja su utvrdili da je novcem Agencije za saradnju, edukaciju i razvoj smijenjeni izvršni direktor kupio stan u Beogradu, renovirao porodičnu kuću u Banjaluci. Utvrđeno je i da je karticu u vlasništvu Udruženja trošio za lične potrebe, na ljetovanjima u Grčkoj. Ukupno je sa kartice tako potrošeno oko 40 000 maraka novca Udruženja a članovi Udruženja, za Gerila info, kažu kako je zanimljivo, što je Vučić priznao i na skupštini Udruženja, da je čest gost izvršnog direktora prilikom “peglanja” službene kartice bio Task menadžer delegacije Evropske unije u Bosni i Hercegovini, Vlado Pandurević. Većinu projekata Agencije finansira upravo delegacija Evropske unije u Bosni i Hercegovini.

Zoran Mićić, predsjednik skupštine Agencije za saradnju, edukaciju i razvoj u vrijeme kada je otkriveno da direktor novac agencije troši kao svoj, za Gerila info, kaže da su on i još neki članovi Udruženja a po nalogu skupštine odmah sve prijavili nadležnim institucijama. Objašnjava, međutim da su udarili u zid jer Osnovni sud u Banjaluci uporno izlazi u susret smijenjenom direktoru i njegovom advokatu Draganu Stuparu prihvatajući lažiranu skupštinu Udruženja, koja je Vučića vratila na poziciju izvršnog direktora, kao validnu. Osnovni sud u Banjaluci to uporno radi već dvije godine iako je Okružni sud u Banjaluci u nekoliko navrata prihvatao žalbu na odluke Osnovnog suda i predmet vraćao na Osnovni sud. Zbog svega toga podnesena je krivična prijava Republičkom javnom tužilaštvu Republike Srpske, na sve nepravilnosti.

“Na osnovu podnesene krivične prijave Okružnom javnom tužilaštvu po nalogu sudije za prethodni postupak, u avgustu 2020. godine, pripadnici Odjeljenja za suzbijanje privrednog kriminala Policijske uprave Banjaluka su izuzeli kompletnu programsku kao i finansijsku dokumentaciju kao i računare iz Udruženja s ciljem spriječavanja uništavanja dokaza i sprovođenja vještačenja u istražnom postupku a što je tražila skupština Udruženja. Nažalost iako je policija u decembru 2020. podnijela izvještaj Tužilaštvu o postojanju osnovane sumnje da je počinjeno krivično djelo zloupotreba službenog položaja i ovlaštenja, od tog trenutka uprkos brojnim intervencijama OJT Banjaluka nije učinilo ni jednu aktivnost na utvrđivanju krivičnog djela. Time je Udruženju onemogućen rad, petnaest ljudi je ostalo bez primanja, još dvadeset i pet bez honorara a dvadeset studenata bez stipendije”, priča za Gerila info, Zoran Mićić.

Osnovni sud odugovlači, Okružno tužulaštvo ne vodi istragu?

Mićić kaže i da je OJT Banjaluka svojim nedjelovanjem ostavilo prostor i vrijeme smijenjenom izvršnom direktoru da, falsifikovanjem dokumenata i formiranjem nove fiktivne skupštine kojom je u jednom trenutku predsjedavao i njegov advokat Dragan Stupar, četiri puta na Osnovnom sudu u Banjaluci dobije riješenje kojim mu se daje ovlaštenje za predstavljanje Udruženja. Mićić kaže da je Osnovni sud u jednom danu izdavao po nekoliko dokumenata Vučićevom advokatu a koja nije moguće dobiti za jedan dan već od svakog izdavanja mora da prođe određen period.

“Iako su o svim nepravilnostima rada Osnovnog suda upoznati i predsjednik suda Milenko Milekić i sekretar suda Vladimir Jurišić dešava se da predsjednica parničnog odjeljenja, sudija Biljana Vučetić, tri puta donosi riješenje u vanparničnom postupku kojim poništava riješenje predsjednice vanparničnog odjeljenja a u novembru 2021. godine na osnovu falsifikovanih dokumenata ponovo donosi istovjetno riješenje koje je Okružni sud već dva puta ukinuo i proglasio nezakonitim”, objašnjava Mićić za Gerila info.

Na pitanja Gerila info o tome šta je do sada urađeno u pomenutoj istrazi po osnovu krivične prijave kao i šta je urađeno po prijavama o korupciji u Tužilaštvu zbog ovog predmeta iz Tužilaštva ne odgovaraju konkretno. Navode da iz pitanja ne razumiju o kojem smijenjenom direktoru je riječ. Pitanja o korupciji u OJT su ignorisali.

Članovi Udruženja su, zbog svega, 22. decembra prošle godine, krivičnu prijavu predali Republičkom javnom tužilaštvu Republike Srpske.

Osnovni sud smo pitali zašto postupak u vezi sa promjenom upisa lica za zastupanje traje godinama, zašto sudija konstantno donosi ista riješenja i pored odbacivanja takvih riješenja na Okružnom sudu kao nezakonitih. Iz ovog suda odgovaraju da ne mogu davati više informacija dok se ne završi žalbeni postupak.

“Iz navedenih razloga ne možemo davati informacije, niti komentarisati tok navedenog postupka, dok Okružni sud u Banjoj Luci ne odluči u ovoj pravnoj stvari a ovaj sud će nakon toga poštovati pravne razloge izražene u drugostepenoj presudi”, navodi se u odgovoru banjalučkog Osnovnog suda.

U Republičkom javnom tužilaštvu Republike Srpske potvrdili su, za Gerila info, da se navedene krivične prijave nalaze u radu kod postupajućeg tužioca “koji će u narednom periodu izvršiti provjere navoda podnesenih prijava”.

Zbog toga što Osnovni sud na različite načine izlazi u susret smijenjenom direktoru i njegovom advokatu i ignoriše drugostepena riješenja Okružnog suda protiv sudija banjalučkog Osnovnog suda je, od strane jednog broja zaposlenika ACED-a, podnesena prijava Kancelariji disciplinskog tužioca pri Visokom sudskom i tužilačkom savjetu Bosne i Hercegovine.

Naknadnim uvidom u poslovnu dokumentaciju Agencije za saradnju, edukaciju i razvoj utvrđeno je da je smijenjeni izvršni direktor za oko 150 000 maraka oštetio Fond Predsjednika Republike, čime ukupna pronevjera dolazi do pola miliona maraka.

Naime, Agenicja je od Fonda Predsjednika Republike dobila projekat “Izgradnja infrastrukture za potrebe djece oboljele od astme- Projekat Edukativni turizam u prirodi- turističko razvojni potencijal Republike Srpske” vrijedan 70 000 maraka. Naknadno je utvrđeno da je odobren još jedan projekat vrijedan 80 000 maraka za koji nisu znali ostali članovi ACED-a.

Umjesto Centra za boljelu djecu skupocjeni namještaj i oprema

Infrastrukturni projekat u prirodi za djecu oboljelu od astme trebalo je da bude izgrađen u Mlinskoj Rijeci kod Čelinca u okviru turističkog kompleksa Prima prom ali se to nikada nije desilo. Gerila info je u posjedu obimne dokumentacije i faktura koje pokazuju da je Agencija kroz projekat dobijen od Predsjednika Republike kupovala građevinski materijal, luksuzni namještaj, laptope i računarsku opremu. Dio novca potrošen je upravo u firmi Prima prom.

Zoran Mićić, koji je odlukom skupštine ACED-a izabran za novog direktora Udruženja, o nenamjenskom trošenju sredstava iz projekta Predsjednika Republike obavijestio je kabinet Predsjednice Republike Srpske odnosno Đuku Huremović generalnog sekretara službe Predsjednika Republike Srpske. Kabinet Predsjednice RS je obaviješten da je 70 000 maraka nenamjenski potrošeno a da je angažovanjem članova Udruženja spriječena nenamjenska potrošnja još 80 000 maraka koliko je brzom reakcijom ostalo zarobljeno na računu Udruženja. Reakcije iz kabineta Predsjednice Republike Srpske nije bilo. Iz kabineta Predsjednika Republike nisu odgovorili ni na pitanja Gerila info u vezi sa ovim projektom koji su finansirali.

Gerila info je u posjedu izvoda sa računa Udruženja sa kojih se vidi da je smijenjeni direktor sam sebi u dva navrata, 19. i 20. februara 2020. godine, na sopstveni privatni račun uplaćivao 20 000 odnosno 23 200 maraka. Račun Udruženja koristio je i za plaćanje depozita za banku za privatni stambeni kredit, 21. aprila 2020. godine. Ukupno 30 500 maraka.

Novo rukovodstvo Agencije za saradnju, edukaciju i razvoj (na Osnovnom sudu i dalje je u toku postupak dokazivanja prava upisa i predstavljanja) o pronevjerama i nenamjenskom trošenju novca evropskih fondova namjenjenih za projekte u Bosni i Hercegovini obavjestilo je i delegaciju Evropske Unije u Bosni i Hercegovini ali i specijalnog predstavnika Evropske Unije i šefa Delegacije Evropske Unije u BiH, Johana Satlera. Nikakav odgovor niti reakcija nisu primjećeni.

Zoran Mićić prijavio je delegaciji EU u BiH i prijetnje po život od strane pojedinih zaposlenika Delegacije Evropske Unije. Protiv Mićića je takođe od strane advokata smijenjenog direktora Udruženja, Duška Vučića, Dragana Stupara podnesena krivična prijava.

Advokat Duška Vučića, Dragan Stupar u razgovoru sa novinarom Gerila info kaže da ne može govoriti o detaljima predmeta ali tvrdi da se u slučaju krivične prijave protiv njegovog klijenta ne može raditi o krivičnom djelu a što su, tvrdi, pokazale i interne revizije. Negira da je protiv njega podnesena krivična prijava, kaže da je Zoran Mićić krivičnim prijavama obuhvatio puno ljudi. On tvrdi i da je, konačno, potvrđeno na sudu da je Vučić legalni direktor Udruženja.

Duško Vučić, za Gerila info, napominje kako su svi navodi iz pitanja koja smo mu poslali u vezi sa zloupotrebom sredstava Agencije na čijem čelu je bio netačni. I on tvrdi da su različite kontrole pokazale da toga nije bilo. Tvrdi i da je strana koja ga je prijavila za nezakonite radnje nezakonito preuzela kontrolu nad udruženjem. Navodi kako je zbog ranijih tvrdnji u medijima tužio i Mićića i pojedine medije. U odgovoru za Gerila info Vučić dovodi u pitanje moralni kredibilitet njegovih dojučerašnjih kolega iz ACED-a.

„ACED je za 13 godina rada dobio povjerenje za 82 ugovora/projekta. Koliko mogu procijeniti, ovo je izuzetno visok broj – ne samo za BiH, nego i za region. Da je postojala sumnja iti jednog donatora u rad ACED-a i u sve finansijske i programske izvještaje koji su prošli bezbroj kontrola, siguran sam da ACED ne bi dobio toliko povjerenja od ustanova koje svoj rad baziraju upravo na povjerenju. A da ACED nije bio toliko uspješan u radu, ne bi u maju 2020. godine imao značajno više od 1 milion KM na poslovnim računima. Ali isto smatram da ne bi bilo pokušaja neprijateljskog preuzimanja kako je bilo u junu 2020. godine organizovanjem ilegalne sjednice skupštine sa nelegitimnim članovima od strane Zorana Mićića“, piše, između ostalog u odgovoru Duška Vučića za Gerila info.

Gerila info, međutim, u posjedu je zapisnika sa skupštine ACEDA iz juna 2020. godine gdje je Vučić nakon pitanja nekih od članova skupštine o zloupotrebi sredstava priznao da je trošio sredstva udruženja za lične potrebe, sporeći samo iznos potrošenog novca.
