NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW: Arrest Warrants Issued for Millennium Team Owners Over Construction Without a Building Permit at the Former Hotel Yugoslavia Site!

The Third Basic Public Prosecutor’s Office in Belgrade has issued orders to locate and arrest Stojan Vujko and Ivan Bošnjak, representatives of the company “Millennium Team” LLC, as well as Andrej Đulić, a representative of “Danube Riverside” LLC, in connection with construction work at the site of the former Hotel Yugoslavia in Belgrade, for which no appropriate building permit has been issued.

The orders were issued on suspicion that they committed the criminal offense of construction without a building permit, under Article 219a of the Criminal Code.

The Prosecutor’s Office had previously initiated an investigative procedure, during which the competent construction inspection, acting on its instructions, visited the site to establish all relevant facts and circumstances. So far, all relevant documentation necessary for further proceedings and the implementation of legally prescribed measures has been collected.

Today, the individuals targeted by the arrest orders informed police officers at the police station that they had submitted requests to the Higher Public Prosecutor’s Office in Belgrade seeking the disqualification of the chief public prosecutor of the Third Basic Public Prosecutor’s Office in Belgrade, the prosecutor handling the case, and two expert witnesses engaged in the proceedings. The Higher Public Prosecutor’s Office in Belgrade did not notify the Third Basic Public Prosecutor’s Office in Belgrade that these requests had been submitted.

Given the urgency of the proceedings and the statutory deadlines for taking procedural actions, the Third Basic Public Prosecutor’s Office in Belgrade is calling on the Higher Public Prosecutor’s Office in Belgrade to act on the submitted requests without delay, within its legal jurisdiction, and issue an appropriate decision in order to ensure that further proceedings can continue lawfully and without obstruction.

We remind readers that the Ministry of Construction, Transport and Infrastructure today rejected an application by “Danube Riverside,” a company owned by Millennium Team, for a building permit to construct a new development on the site of the former Hotel Yugoslavia in Belgrade.

On November 10, the Ministry rejected “Danube Riverside’s” application for a building permit for the phased construction of a residential and commercial complex with an underground garage. The application concerned the first phase of the project, which envisaged the construction of a nine-story hotel with commercial facilities and a garage on cadastral plot 2442 in the Zemun cadastral municipality, at the site of the former Hotel Yugoslavia.

The Ministry determined that the formal requirements for issuing a building permit had not been met. In its explanation, the Ministry listed 28 deficiencies that the investor must address, most of which concern incomplete or inconsistent documentation.
