CORRUPTION BAROMETER FOR DECEMBER 2023<\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

Transparency International Macedonia continues to carry out its regular monthly activities for monitoring cases and activities related to corrupt behavior and the fight against corruption, which we\u2019ve named \u201cLight & Dark\u201d.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The monitoring of these cases has received significant attention, both in the public sphere and among domestic and foreign institutions, and over time, it has evolved into a relevant alternative barometer for measuring corruption and assessing the government\u2019s willingness to address this issue.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cDARK\u201d OCCURRENCES FOR DECEMBER 2023 <\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The long list of headlines regarding dark events contains cases of high-level corruption. Often, these cases remain without epilogue before national institutions, perpetuating a state of impunity when it comes to high-ranking officials and corruption based on abuses shielded by politics and the upper echelons of power.<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Will this trend of impunity continue into 2024?<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

SCPC AT THE END OF MANDATE WITH NEW CASES OF HIGH CORRUPTION<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

NO ONE HOLDS ACCOUNTABLE THE JUDGES WHO SHOULD NOT BE!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

This concerns Jetmir Bedzeti, who enrolled without a problem in the seventh generation of the Academy for Judges and Public Prosecutors, with such a Bar exam signed at the Ministry of Justice. There are several similar cases in the eighth generation of the Academy. Recently, Jetmir Bedzeti was elected as a prosecutor at the Basic Public Prosecutor’s Office in Tetovo.<\/p>\n

HIGH CORRUPTION IN PUBLIC PROCUREMENT <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>Anticorruption<\/strong><\/a> Commission: The procurement of fuel oil from \u201cESM\u201d for the needs of the Negotino Thermal Power Plant reveals high corruption, urging the prosecution to address the case<\/strong> – \u0422he Commission for Prevention of Corruption and Confiscation acted on its own initiative regarding the procurement of fuel oil for the needs of the \u201cESM AD\u201d Negotino executed by \u201cESM AD\u201d Skopje, where the procurement worth 212 million euros was supposed to be carried out by the company \u201cRKM DOOEL\u201d from Skopje.

NEW FACE ON THE BLACKLIST, NATIONAL INSTITUTIONS REMAIN SILENT…<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Kocho Andjusev on the US <\/strong>blacklist<\/strong><\/a> – The United States placed businessman and former Deputy Prime Minister Kocho Andjusev on its blacklist, effectively banning his entry into the United States. The ban also applies to members of his family. “While serving as Deputy Prime Minister, Andjusev abused his official position for his business interests, undermining public trust in North Macedonia’s Government institutions and public processes,” the State Department said in its statement.<\/p>\n

THE CONSEQUENCES OF CHANGES IN THE CRIMINAL CODE CONTINUE \u2013 OUTDATED CASES OF HIGH CORRUPTION FOR THOSE DIRECTLY RESPONSIBLE FOR \u201cSKOPJE 2014\u201d. ONLY THE EXECUTORS WHO WORKED ON SOMEONE’S ORDERS ARE PROSECUTED. WILL THIS LESSON BE LEARNED BY ADMINISTRATION EMPLOYEES?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Indictment for “Skopje <\/strong>2014<\/strong><\/a>” without Gruevski, Stavreski, Kancheska, Todorovikj<\/strong> – Prosecutor Ljubomir Lape filed charges for the “Phoenix” case related to “Skopje 2014”. However, it doesn’t include the primary suspect Nikola Gruevski, the secondary suspect and former finance minister Zoran Stavreski, former Minister of Culture Elizabeta Kancheska-Milevska, former mayors of the Centar Municipality, Vladimir Todorovikj, and Violeta Alarova. Due to changes in the Criminal Code, their cases have expired. The only one among the suspects, now accused, is the former President of the Centar Municipality Council, Vladimir Zdravev. He is being prosecuted for money laundering. Besides him, responsibility is sought for four more individuals and six companies.<\/p>\n

Statute of limitation for “Madjar <\/strong>Telekom<\/strong><\/a>,” a case that took 12 years<\/strong> – The “Madjar Telekom” case, after nearly 12 years of trial in Macedonia, reached a judicial conclusion in the first instance. However, while awaiting the judges’ decision in the Court of Appeals regarding the correctness of the verdict, the lawmakers passed changes to the Criminal Code. Among other things, these changes reduced penalties for criminal offenses, including “Unlawful conduct in office,” the charge at the Skopje Criminal Court. After more than a decade-long judicial “tour,” the case will not find resolution in Macedonia. Nor will there be any resolution for the ongoing preliminary investigation involving Macedonian politicians in the case.<\/p>\n

WILL THERE BE A CHANGE IN THE BEHAVIOR OF THE JUDICIAL COUNCIL?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The EU submitted <\/strong>40<\/strong><\/a> recommendations to the Macedonian authorities to improve the situation with the Judicial Council. Euro-ambassador Geer mentioned that the sheer number indicates deep problems –<\/strong> After two visits to Skopje, EU experts compiled a report on the state of the Judicial Council containing 40 recommendations for improvement. The significant count of 40 recommendations signifies substantial issues with the functioning of the Judicial Council. It influences the overall judiciary’s operations, indicating a critical situation that requires urgent action to address these problems, as stated by Ambassador Geer.<\/p>\n

CIVIL ORGANIZATIONS SOUND THE ALARM!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

One in three citizens requested a <\/strong>bribe<\/strong><\/a>: Corruption remains the biggest problem in North Macedonia<\/strong> – Corruption has again topped the list of issues in Macedonian society, remaining largely unpunished, alerted the Macedonian Center for International Cooperation. Data from the center’s latest research indicates that one in three citizens in the country was asked for a bribe, and one in four paid it. According to the director of MCIC, Aleksandar Krzhalovski, these figures don’t correspond to the state’s handling of corruption, especially considering the domestic judicial system, which has 98 verdicts for \u201cAbuse of official position\u201d and only four for \u201cGiving or Receiving bribes\u201d.<\/p>\n

HOW <\/strong>EXPENSIVE IS THE COST OF PUBLICLY EXPRESSED CRITICISM<\/strong>?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Prosecutor Lence Ristosk<\/strong>a<\/strong> discriminated<\/strong><\/a> against<\/strong>, found the Commission for Protection against Discrimination<\/strong> – Public prosecutor Lence Ristoska was discriminated by the Public Prosecutors Council, confirmed the Commission for Protection against Discrimination. Members established that Ristoska faced discrimination in two job applications for the Higher Public Prosecutor’s Office in Skopje.

INSTITUTIONS ARE NOT PREPARED TO IMPLEMENT ACTIVE AND EFFECTIVE CONFISCATION!?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The Judicial Council identified shortcomings in the confiscation of <\/strong>“Transmet”<\/strong><\/a> – the report sent to the Prosecution<\/strong> – The Judicial Council found shortcomings in the confiscation of \u201cTransmet\u201d. The Council decided to send the report on the judicial proceedings regarding the unsuccessful confiscation to the Prosecution to determine if there were criminal offenses in the court processes. Although the State was supposed to gain over 14 million through the confiscation, the property gained through criminal acts hasn’t been entirely secured yet. The Judicial Council noted discrepancies in the court proceedings for the confiscation of \u201cTransmet\u201d in the \u201cTrust case\u201d, allowing part of the property acquired through criminal actions to be sold before the State took over, as reported by the Council’s working group.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cLIGHT\u201d OCCURRENCES FOR DECEMBER 2023 <\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

The action resulted from a months-long pre-investigation process, codenamed “Cicach,” involving criminal offenses related to official position, public finances, payment transactions, and economy, conducted by the Financial Police Administration in coordination with the Basic Public Prosecutor’s Office for the prosecution of organized crime.”The Financial Police Administration, following a months-long pre-investigation process under the codename ‘Cicach,’ filed a criminal complaint against multiple individuals and two legal entities due to reasonable suspicion of committed criminal offenses ‘fraud’ and ‘money laundering and other contributions from a criminal offense’ as per the Criminal Code of the Republic of North Macedonia, causing damage to the Health Insurance Fund of the Republic of North Macedonia in the amount of 35,551,472 denars,” informed the Financial Police Administration.<\/p>\n
