Milan Ljepoja, a member of the Pink Panther robbery group, suspected of murdering Veljko Belivuk aka Velja Nevolja, is not the only person from the ranks of famous jewel thieves who was on Belivuk’s list for shooting.
Milan Ljepoja
That the former head of the “Pink Panther” in Serbia, Milan Ljepoja de Nis, was brutally murdered, was revealed when an organized criminal group led by Belivuk and his closest collaborator Marko Miljković Mare was arrested.
Security camera footage from one of the huts in Ritopek, which is reasonably suspected of being used for heinous crimes, assassinations and destruction of the victims’ bodies, show the moment when Ljepoja arrives at it. However, the police suspect that he never got out of there alive.
The motive for the disappearance, and then the murder of this Pink Panther, was shrouded in mystery from the beginning, until a recording of a conversation between Belivuk and a member of the group, Marko Andrić Kuzman, was discovered.
In the first recording, Kuzman is heard sending a voice message to Velja Nevolja from a “scrambled” phone in which he speaks of the chief of the “Pink Panther” via codes.
– I have to tell you, to make it familiar to you. She is Mance from Nothing, see? It is as big as the Pink Panther, do you know it? I say, “Oh, I don’t see it.” I don’t want to spread out bro, don’t worry, just shoot asap. Okay. I say: “I don’t want to spread around without worries, brother, just say what you need, I’m here.” Well, since he’s asking about you, he came up with the clever idea that he will be the main one in Nis and he gathers some guys to fuck. And one of those pi ** told me that he was asking about you, that you were holding Nis, but that you were the worst and that he would solve you and then take over the city – you can hear it on the recording.
The second video published supposedly dates from the time after the murder, and the head of the Criminal Police Directorate explained that it was a conversation between the leader and a member of the group.
From that conversation, the motive for this murder can be partially hinted at, although the investigation is now going in several directions.
The recordings show that it is a conflict over the division of territories in Nis, that is, the primacy that the Ljuboje group will assume after “removing the team from Belivuk.” It is explained that the people of Nis gathered around the “Panthers” are preparing their people and that they are financially stable.
In the second recording, which was made after Ljepoja’s assassination, Kuzman is heard conveying Belivuk’s message that the war is over and that he will not touch Ljepoja’s friends.
However, investigators do not rule out the possibility that the motive for this brutal murder is money, more precisely the loot of the millionaire robbery that Ljepoja committed in the United Arab Emirates.
Namely, in April 2007, Ljepoja and his group broke into a shopping mall in Dubai with two cars and parked in front of the “Graf” jewelry store. They broke the shop window of the goldsmith shop with a vehicle, then they went out and took everything they could.
They drove away from the scene in another car and were not known until the following year, when Ljepoja fell in France. Meanwhile, his partner was arrested, who committed suicide in prison.
The theft was estimated at an incredible 11 million euros and what happened to the money remains a mystery. Therefore, the possibility that the loot was one of the reasons why Belivuk’s team could conflict with Ljepoja is not ruled out.
Clearances in the garage
Aleksandar Šarac, a Belgrade criminal whose murder was attempted several times, was killed in a garage in a garage in a shopping center in New Belgrade. Sharac himself knew he was in danger, so he moved exclusively in an armored vehicle, with bulletproof vests and always in crowded places, but even that did not save him because the attacker approached him from behind in the garage and shot him two shots at the door. behind your head.
Although he was previously attacked, it was not clear at first why he was killed. However, it soon after emerged that Šarac was a good friend of Lazar Vukićević, who had disappeared a few days earlier in Banovo brdo, the Begorad settlement where Šarac lives. Vukićević is suspected of being brutally murdered by Belivuk’s team.
It turned out that Šarac, learning that Vukićević was missing, went to see his father and offered to help him in the search, and then he was killed a few days later.
Less than a month later, shots rang out again in New Belgrade, this time in the garage of a residential building in Belleville. The victim is Bojan Mirković, whose name was unfamiliar to the public in Serbia at first, but a few days later it was revealed that he was a close collaborator of Aleksandar Šarc.
Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic revealed at a conference that Sarac and Marinkovic have joint contact with “individuals from state structures,” and it was rumored that the group’s operatives are close to the Skaljar clan, charged with acquiring cars for liquidations organized by members of the the group in a higher position in the clan hierarchy.
Relationship with Damir Hadzic
And in that position is, among other things, Damir Hadzic, a man from Uzice known for the fact that he once raided European jewelers under the auspices of the “Pink Panther”. During April 2010, Hadzic was arrested in Milan, during an attempt to carry out an armed robbery of an armored vehicle to transport money, and two years later he was shot at a gambling shop in Uzice.
In recent years, Hadzic retired from the business of robbery, but not crime, because according to information from security structures, his “job” now was to organize liquidations on behalf of the criminal fraud group. The Skaljar clan has been in conflict for years with the Kavac clan, whose Belgrade branch was led by Belivuk.
Hadzic was killed together with Alan Kozar in Corfu, in front of a rented villa where they hid for a long time. Their bodies were found by a masseur, and the police discovered that they had false documents and weapons with them, which they apparently failed to use.
However, what the police discovered in the days of the investigation is even more interesting.
While investigating the murder of Hadzic and Kozar, investigators were trying to piece together a mosaic of the liquidation that took place earlier, also in Greece, when Stevan Stamatovic and Igor Dedovic were murdered in an Athens restaurant, while dining with their wives and children. .
International investigators, as reported by the Greek media last year, came to the information that the victims in both cases were in contact with certain members of the criminal organization that organized the murders of them. Text messages and calls were found with a person suspected of having sent them and revealed the places where they were hiding. An inspection of the listings revealed that they had a lot of confidence in that person, as they sent him their locations electronically, which had previously been kept strictly secret.
As a possible tip in both cases, Savo L., a native of Podgorica who used to be a partner of the jackal player, is mentioned and then changed his shirt and joined the sofas.
Following such information and the alleged behavior of his DNA in the village where Kozar and Hadzic were hiding, the police wanted to speak to him, but his wife reported the disappearance to the Montenegrin police even then … It was suspected that he went to pay for the work done, but he was kidnapped and killed.
When investigating these two double murders, the police also came to the information that Ljubomir Lainović, alias Dugi, son of the former Novi Sad criminal and commander of the Serbian guard Branislav Lainović, participated in the liquidation in Athens.
However, the police never questioned Lainović because his name was also on the list of missing persons, whose disappearances are related to the Velja Nevolje group.
