There are also suspicions that a large portion of this money ended up with the director and her associates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Alleged Blackmail Through Tax Audits<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sources claim that the mechanism was simple: the director allegedly ordered targeted tax audits intended to put pressure on taxpayers. Those who found themselves in her sights were reportedly forced to build her a villa, pave roads, install video surveillance systems, and construct a fountain with a roundabout in Pavlovci. They allegedly also furnished her apartment and bought ornamental plants worth several hundred thousand euros, while the largest sums, according to the allegations, had to be delivered in cash. Taxpayers who were unwilling or unable to pay were reportedly issued strict tax assessments, most often without any legal basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-serbiantimes-info wp-block-embed-serbiantimes-info\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"VMjC0464eG\"><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/ima-boga-nadam-se-da-ce-i-ostali-biti-uhapseni-reakcija-studentkinje-nikoline-kojoj-je-kricak-pretio-silovanjem\/\">&#8222;IMA BOGA, NADAM SE DA \u0106E I OSTALI BITI UHAP\u0160ENI&#8220;: Reakcija studentkinje Nikoline kojoj je Kri\u010dak pretio silovanjem!<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; visibility: hidden;\" title=\"\u201e\u201eIMA BOGA, NADAM SE DA \u0106E I OSTALI BITI UHAP\u0160ENI\u201c: Reakcija studentkinje Nikoline kojoj je Kri\u010dak pretio silovanjem!\u201c \u2014 Serbiantimes.info\" src=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/ima-boga-nadam-se-da-ce-i-ostali-biti-uhapseni-reakcija-studentkinje-nikoline-kojoj-je-kricak-pretio-silovanjem\/embed\/#?secret=okwhPoISI6#?secret=VMjC0464eG\" data-secret=\"VMjC0464eG\" width=\"500\" height=\"282\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThose who refused to comply and were unwilling or unable to pay her rate ended up with draconian tax assessments, most often without any legal basis whatsoever,\u201d a source close to the investigation cited by the newsroom stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Property: Real Estate from Dedinje to Dubai<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The assets Dragana Markovi\u0107 allegedly acquired are estimated to be worth tens of millions of euros. According to sources, the properties are registered in the names of her daughter and her son-in-law&#8217;s company, whose revenues allegedly increased by several million euros and which was never subjected to a tax audit during her tenure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The list of assets mentioned includes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A 273-square-meter apartment in Dedinje, on Neznanog junaka Street;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A villa with a swimming pool in Pavlovci and a private lake near Ruma, whose size can reportedly be seen in an aerial photograph (the village of Pavlovci near Ruma, a villa and plot valued at approximately \u20ac1.5 million);<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>An apartment in Montenegro (Portonovi);<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>An apartment in the United Arab Emirates (Dubai).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"http:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/11\/image-1.png?utm_source=chatgpt.com\">image<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The village of Pavlovci near Ruma, a villa and plot worth \u20ac1.5 million; Photo: Slavija Info<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Daughter&#8217;s Employment and Vehicle Fleet<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the newsroom&#8217;s allegations, the director&#8217;s daughter does not work anywhere and is registered as an employee through personal connections at the Savski Venac Municipality, where she allegedly receives a salary and social security contributions despite not showing up for work. She has reportedly been seen in a white Porsche Cayenne worth approximately \u20ac100,000, which was photographed with Belgrade license plates. A Range Rover, another Porsche (Macan), and the director&#8217;s latest Mercedes are also mentioned. According to the allegations, the director used three official vehicles for years. Until a few days ago, those state-owned vehicles were parked outside her building in Dedinje every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Associates Mentioned<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Smiljana Balsi\u0107 and Nenad Krtolica are named as her main associates. Balsi\u0107, formerly the director of the largest Belgrade branch and now retired, was allegedly retained as a special adviser, while the director reportedly secured her the position of chairwoman of the Management Board of the state-owned bank <a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/tag\/postanska-stedionica\/?utm_source=chatgpt.com\">Po\u0161tanska \u0161tedionica<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nenad Krtolica, described in the article as someone with an alleged criminal record in police files, headed the Tax Audit Sector for 12 years and is now retired. According to operational information cited by the newsroom, he allegedly invested money acquired through years of corruption in real estate in Vienna, where his son currently lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Alleged Removal of Documents in Zemun<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to reports from inside the building, there has been unrest over the past three days at the Tax Administration&#8217;s headquarters in Zemun. The director has reportedly shut herself in her 200-square-meter office with her closest associates. The office has a private bathroom, a terrace overlooking the river, and a room with a secret passage. In the evening hours, documents that could incriminate her are allegedly being destroyed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the allegations, eyewitnesses claim that her daughter personally drove a car to the rear entrance so that bags containing the remaining documents could be taken out during the night. The SUV allegedly belonging to the daughter, a Porsche Cayenne worth \u20ac100,000, was reportedly filmed last night in a residential garage in Belgrade, while the bags were allegedly thrown into a public dumpster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The question is whether the relevant authorities will act before evidence of the alleged \u20ac200 million loss is destroyed. They are also being urged to examine the possibility of dismissing the director and establishing her criminal liability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#e03838\" class=\"has-inline-color\">MORE TOPICS:<\/mark><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/zoc-celebrates-the-students-victory-im-happy-with-the-election-results-in-serbia-and-i-wish-young-people-all-the-best-video\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>\u017dOC CELEBRATES THE STUDENTS\u2019 VICTORY: \u201cI\u2019m happy with the election results in Serbia, and I wish young people all the best!\u201d (VIDEO)<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/behind-bars-vucic-has-his-strongest-support-his-list-won-more-than-65-percent-of-the-vote-in-prisons\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>BEHIND BARS, VU\u010cI\u0106 HAS HIS STRONGEST SUPPORT: His list won more than 65 percent of the vote in prisons!<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/a-victory-resonating-far-beyond-serbias-borders-swedish-prime-minister-congratulates-the-students-saying-it-is-time-for-democracy-and-the-fight-against-corruption\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>A VICTORY RESONATING FAR BEYOND SERBIA\u2019S BORDERS: Swedish prime minister congratulates the students, saying: \u201cIt is time for democracy and the fight against corruption!\u201d<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/where-has-rem-been-all-this-time-dubravka-valic-nedeljkovic-announces-debate-on-informer-and-hundreds-of-complaints-that-have-been-waiting-for-years\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>WHERE HAS REM BEEN ALL THIS TIME?!
