It is symptomatic that in all three cases they are passengers who arrived on a flight from Moscow on December 19 and 21, 2020.
A 61-year-old Montenegrin citizen was carrying around € 80,000 undeclared when customs officers stopped him at the green checkpoint last night at around 9.45pm, after he arrived on the aforementioned flight and removed his luggage from the carousel.
When asked why he did not report cash that far exceeds the allowed amount, the passenger said he did not pay attention to where the red is and where the green checkpoint is.

A similar explanation was given to the customs official by a 22-year-old citizen of Belgrade who arrived on the same flight, when during a detailed search some 16,500 euros and about 500 dollars were found in his luggage.
A 44-year-old Russian citizen was found in the crime two days earlier, who was also detained and examined at the green checkpoint after taking his luggage. When a detailed search found 23,000 euros in his wallet, he told the customs official that he did not know he should report them.
