Montenegro's Special State Prosecutor's Office is opening a case related to recent allegations made by Marinika Tepic, a deputy leader of Serbia's opposition Party of Freedom and Justice (SSP), about Mel, Nova M TV has reported on Tuesday.
Mtel was created by merging GO4YU and MTEL Austria companies which belong to the Telekom Serbia group.
Last week, Tepic told reporters that state-owned Telekom Serbia pumped money into fake contracts and paid politicians and advisors through its subordinate company Mtel in Montenegro while borrowing to pay wages.
She showed annexes to contracts with Mtel under which millions of euros were paid to President Milo Djukanovic’s family in Montenegro, a public relations company and a close friend of Serbia’s civilian security and intelligence agency (BIA) chief Bratislav Gasic.
