What happened
Montenegrin prosecutors requested the High Court in Podgorica permanently confiscate over 54,000 square meters of real estate and luxury vehicles. These assets are allegedly linked to Radoje Zvicer and his wife, Tamara Zvicer, who are identified as leaders of the Kavač criminal clan. The request targets properties acquired with criminal proceeds, following the adoption of a new Anti-Mafia Law on September 4.

Why it matters
