INDICTMENT FILED FOR CORRUPTION CRIMINAL OFFENCE

The Prosecutor’s Office of BiH filed an indictment against Tanja Kusmuk*, born in 1979 in Sarajevo, a suspended employee of the Prosecutor’s Office of BiH.

It is alleged against the defendant that in dozens of cases between 2020 and November 2024 she, as a specialist cashier at the Prosecutor’s Office of BiH, made illegal cash payments from the cash register, which she misappropriated and thus acquired unlawful material gain in the amount of BAM 17,798.15, and at the same time caused damage to the Prosecutor’s Office of BiH and the budget of BiH.

In most cases, these were instances of unfounded recording and alleged payment of expenses to non-existent witnesses.

The defendant is charged with having committed the criminal offence of Embezzlement in office under Article 221 (2) of the Criminal Code of BiH as read with paragraph 1 thereof.

The indictment was forwarded to the Court of BiH, which confirmed it.
