\u201cDARK\u201d OCCURRENCES FOR JULY 2025<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

The President of the SCPC <\/strong>i<\/strong>llegally <\/strong>a<\/strong>ccessed<\/strong><\/a> the <\/strong>c<\/strong>lassified <\/strong>i<\/strong>nformation <\/strong>s<\/strong>ystem a <\/strong>c<\/strong>olleague took the <\/strong>e<\/strong>xam on <\/strong>h<\/strong>er <\/strong>b<\/strong>ehalf to <\/strong>o<\/strong>btain a “State Secret” Certificate<\/strong> – <\/strong>The Prosecutor\u2019s Office announced that an indictment has been filed against the President of the State Commission for the Prevention of Corruption (SCPC), Tatjana Dimitrovska, for disclosing official secrets to a defendant in the “Additive” case. She allegedly extracted and photographed data from the Commission\u2019s files related to the procurement of additives in the state energy sector and the purchase of fuel oil by Neboj\u0161a Stojanovi\u0107, a defendant in the “Additive” case and former director of the Negotino thermal power plant. However, what is particularly shocking is that, during the investigation, an inspection of Dimitrovska\u2019s official phone revealed that she and another state official,\u00a0 an auditor had committed forgery and illegally accessed the classified information system. Dimitrovska “hired” a fellow auditor (prior to her role as SCPC president, she had been an auditor at the State Audit Office), who used her passwords and codes to access the system, attend lectures, and take exams in her name so that she could obtain a “state secret” certificate.<\/p>\n

Old <\/strong>w<\/strong>ounds<\/strong><\/a> in the <\/strong>n<\/strong>ew European Commission Report on North Macedonia<\/strong> – <\/strong>Respect for the principle of separation of powers, prevention of further negative consequences from the amendments to the Criminal Code, effective implementation of anti-corruption reforms, and an independent judiciary\u2026 These are just some of the recommendations in the European Commission\u2019s 2025 Annual Rule of Law Report<\/a>. \u201cNorth Macedonia<\/a> continued to implement judicial reforms, but interference and pressure from other branches of government raise serious concerns regarding judicial independence,\u201d the report states. The European Commission<\/a> notes that the current legal grounds for the potential dismissal of the Chief Public Prosecutor include broad definitions, such as “inappropriate behavior that undermines the reputation of the public prosecution” which create room for legal uncertainty and political influence in the process of dismissing the Chief Prosecutor. The Commission also expressed concern over several cases related to respect for judicial independence and the principle of separation of powers. One example cited was government-level announcements about the possible \u201cdissolution\u201d of the Judicial Council and the Council of Public Prosecutors.<\/p>\n

Following a months long investigation, the Prosecutor\u2019s Office claims that the suspects, as part of two criminal groups, acted as intermediaries and enabled the illegal acquisition of disability pension and caregiver benefits, charging between 150 and 5,000 euros for their services. Ten individuals are charged with criminal association, bribery, and offering or receiving rewards for unlawful influence. Five others are accused of criminal association and accepting bribes, while the remaining 19 face charges for giving bribes and offering rewards for unlawful influence.<\/p>\n

Additionally, capital projects including the construction of new clinical centers are experiencing long-term delays and financial implications affecting the overall project costs. These issues directly impact the accessibility and quality of healthcare services for citizens.
