The Prosecutor's Office for Organized Crime has begun to act on the criminal complaint filed by the Committee of Lawyers for Human Rights against the former Minister for Family Care Ratko Dmitrović for abuses at competitions aimed at young people, families and women, said the director of the Committee of Lawyers for Human Rights (YUKOM) Katarina Golubović today. .

Balkan Research Network (BIRN) published a report on Tuesday, based on publicly available data, that a network of phantom organizations falsified reports and extracted millions from the budget on public tenders intended for young people, families and women, naming Aleksandra Čamagić, a close associate of Aleksandar Šapić, as the responsible person.
To recall, the mechanism was simple: the organization would apply for a public tender, receive money, and then transfer it to private agencies and send falsified, i.e. fictitious, reports on activities and spending.
In this way, at least five million euros were extracted from the Ministry of Family Care and Demography in 2021.
Based on the documents from the Ministry, which were analyzed by Citizen Initiatives, and several hundred documents from the Treasury Administration, the Business Register Agency, local self-government competitions and conversations with actors, BIRN's research showed that a large part of the training and lectures for which this the money that was intended was never held, and the part that was - held by the schools themselves and local youth offices - free of charge.
Instead of supporting young people, women and preventing violence, millions of euros were poured into the accounts of family members, neighbors, friends and acquaintances of people from this network, through agencies that were established for that purpose. Read the entire text at BIRN.
