Abuse of Position: Residents of Sarajevo and Banja Luka Jointly Robbed 10 Million KM

The Criminal Police Sector of the Banja Luka Public Security Center /CJB/ has filed a report with the competent District Prosecutor's Office against five individuals suspected of having committed multiple criminal offenses from 2009 to 2013, causing material damage of 10,375,300 KM, reports the Patria news agency.

The report was filed against individuals with initials D.B. /66/ from Banja Luka, G.K. /54/ and N.S. /54/ from Sarajevo, Z.D. /58/ and R.Z. /59/ from Banja Luka, the CJB Banja Luka announced.

The police emphasize that the suspects are charged with criminal offenses of abuse of official position or authority, falsification or destruction of business or commercial books or documents, and negligent business operations.

D.B. is suspected of, in his capacity as director of a company from Banja Luka, knowingly violating the provisions of contracts concluded with a company from Sarajevo, approving discounts on the basis of fictitiously performed micro-distribution services and a "cash discount" for which he also had no legal basis.

By this act, together with the director and owner of the company from Sarajevo, G.K. and N.S., he committed the criminal offense of abuse of official position or authority.

The suspects D.B. and Z.D. from Belgrade, contrary to the provisions of the Sales Contract concluded with a company from Laktaši, did not take over promissory notes as security instruments, which resulted in the impossibility of collecting claims from the company from Laktaši, thereby committing the criminal offense of negligent business operations.

D.B. is further suspected of, contrary to the Contract concluded with a company from Sarajevo, failing to obtain security instruments for the sale of goods, which resulted in the impossibility of collecting payment for the delivered goods, thereby committing the criminal offense of negligent business operations.

The accountant R.Z. is also suspected of preparing business documentation with false content, although she was aware that she had no legal basis for doing so, thereby committing the criminal offense of falsification or destruction of business or commercial books or documents.
