Robert Golob is in an international financial investigation due to remittances to a company in Montenegro, reports Siol.net. It is about 600 thousand euros, which were constantly withdrawn in cash. After the affair with the business in BiH and the account in Romania, new skeletons are falling from Golob’s closets.
Party President Robert Golob withdrew from the public just before Sunday’s election. A few days ago, he announced that he was infected with the coronavirus. The party announced today that Marta Kos has become the party’s new vice-president. “We have strengthened our leadership. Due to the absence of the president, we want to be able to carry out all tasks until Monday and beyond,” they said.
At the same time, Golob continues to be charged with an unexplained bill in Romania. He says his identity was stolen there. The Austrian bank Raiffeisen, which Golob accuses of participating in the opening of a fake account, also spoke about this today. They replied that they were investigating the matter, but also that the opening of accounts with them was carried out exclusively in the presence of the person and with his proper identification. According to the bank, employees are regularly trained to identify forged applications and documents.
Planet TV journalist Vitomir Petrović obtained a document from the Montenegrin Office for the Prevention of Money Laundering, which refers to the findings of a wider international financial investigation. This is taking place in several countries of the European Union and three countries of the Western Balkans. According to what is known so far, these are Serbia, Montenegro, and Albania.
Part of the obtained documentation reveals the transfers that have supposedly happened in 2019 and 2020 from the Serbian branch of GEN-I to the private company MB Consulting in Montenegro, with which GEN has a consulting contract. These are monthly transfers from five thousand up to 55 thousand euros. That alone amounts to more than half a million euros in remittances, but that is not all the period under investigation in the international financial investigation. In addition, Planet TV found out that the Montenegrin company was established only 10 days before the first transfers from GEN-I Belgrade, Siol.net reports.
