Detention Sought for Six Suspects in Vardar Case

When it comes to its action in the Vardar case, which concerns falsification of money in both North Macedonia and Serbia, the Basic Public Prosecutor’s Office for Prosecution of Organised Crime and Corruption said on Monday it had sought detention for six suspects.

The Interior Ministry said the same day the criminal group from the two countries would make and release into circulation fake money (euros, dollars, rubles, and other currency) in both North Macedonia and Serbia.

However, a lot of it would end up also in the payment operations of Austria, Germany, Romania, Slovenia, Croatia, and Kosovo as well. According to the authorities, the group carried out its illegal activities from the end of 2023 to 3 February of this year.
