Indictment for abuse and fraud in public procurement in Prizren

Prosecution Files Indictment in Prizren Public Procurement Case

The Basic State Prosecution in Prizren, Serious Crimes Department, has formally filed an indictment against the suspect B.P. and the legal entity “B. Sh.P.K.” related to suspected violations of public procurement regulations.

The case centers on a well-founded suspicion of “Misuse and fraud in public procurement.”

According to the indictment, on December 22, 2023, B.P., acting as an authorized representative for the economic operator “B.Sh.P.K.”, is accused of breaching contractual obligations stemming from a public contract. The contract, titled “Supply of twelve photocopiers for KK Dragash schools,” was subject to scrutiny. The investigation revealed that during the contract’s execution, instead of delivering the initially agreed-upon 16 new photocopiers, 16 newly manufactured photocopiers were delivered.

This deviation from the stipulated terms is the basis of the prosecution’s claims. The prosecution’s action follows a thorough investigation into potential irregularities within the public procurement process. Further details regarding the investigation and potential penalties are pending.
