As an organized crime group, the men allegedly had from 2016 to 2019 “in at least 25 occasions planned, organized and conducted trafficking of marijuana - skunk,” read a statement from the Prosecution Office.
They would smuggle between 200 and 900 kilograms from Montenegro to Bosnia and Herzegovina, further to Croatia and on to other EU countries using local transport companies, mostly those transporting oil since rented tanker-trucks were suitable for hiding large amounts of drugs.
The Prosecution Office described the indictment as the most extensive in the country’s fight against narco-crimes so far. It came as a result of several months of comprehensive investigation involving the country’s law enforcement and security agencies in cooperation with “partner institutions in the region and the EU.”
During the arrest of the indicted men, police searched their homes and seized nearly half million convertible marks ($301,900), as well as a certain amount of counterfeit money.
The indictment was forwarded to the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The prosecution said it had obtained hundreds of pieces of evidence and will present more than 20 witnesses and experts.

China Says It Foiled Major Taiwan Spy Network As Taipei Denounces "Malicious Political Stunt"
In what could be used as a possible pretext for war or at least as huge leverage amid increased threats, state broadcaster China Central Television (CCT) claimed in Sunday reporting that Beijing national security authorities have recently exposed and rounded up hundreds of “espionage cases” in a special operation targeting “infiltration and sabotage” of the mainland by Taiwan’s intelligence agencies.
The mass dragnet operation led to the detention of Taiwanese spies and assets, and uncovering of sophisticated networks in what CCTV has dubbed the “Thunder 2020” operation, the report claimed, which set off a firestorm in Taipei. Taiwan has since angrily denounced the claims as nothing but a “malicious political stunt”.
This included CCTV's main current affairs show airing bizarre footage of a Taiwanese businessman "confessing" that he spied on People’s Liberation Army exercises at a stadium last year in Shenzhen, making multiple videos of the make-shift staging ground at the sensitive moment of the Hong Kong crisis, as also reported in Bloomberg. Specifically it appears a group which could be in the "hundreds" are charged with gaining Chinese military intelligence related to the Hong Kong crackdown.
Interestingly, or perhaps quite intentionally, the bombshell accusations by the mainland came just a day after Taiwan's President Tsai Ing-wen extended a rare olive branch at a moment of military tensions, calling for “meaningful dialogue” with China.
The other big, persistent charge is that of "collusion" between Taiwan and Washington, based especially on weapons sales and fears that formal diplomatic relations could be restored in the near future.
