Two individuals were arrested in Podgorica on suspicion of threatening and insulting the director of RTV Podgorica, V.O., both in public and through social media messages.

Andrija Klikovac, head of the DPS councilor club in the Capital City Assembly, criticized RTV Podgorica (RTV Mrak), calling it a 'mirror of the Podgorica government' and alleging that over two million euros of citizens' money is being spent secretly and in an organized manner.

Goran Đurović, director of Media Center, stated that the Committee for Election and Appointments of Podgorica illegally halted the procedure for appointing new members to the RTV Podgorica Council, blaming the PES party and its coalition partners.

Vladimir Peruničić, a cardiologist at the Clinical Center of Montenegro, was arrested for sending offensive messages via Instagram to RTV Podgorica journalist Magdalena Čelanović.

The Centre for Civic Education (CGO) criticizes that partisan relations have overridden public interest in the election of the RTV Podgorica Council, urging the Assembly of the Capital City to ensure a lawful and transparent process.

Andrija Klikovac, a DPS councilor in Podgorica, reacted to the news that candidates for the RTV Podgorica Council were not confirmed, stating it confirms the ruling coalition lacks a majority in the local parliament.

Andrija Klikovac, head of the DPS councilor club, questioned RTV Podgorica director Vladimir Otašević about low viewership, to which Otašević responded that Klikovac was bothered by the truth published in the local public broadcaster's program.

The Centre for Civic Education (CGO) is concerned that partisan relations have overridden public interest in the selection of candidates for the RTV Podgorica Council, as no list was confirmed at the last session of the Capital City's Committee for Selection and Appointments.

The list of candidates for the members of the RTV Podgorica Council has not been confirmed, as candidates Nataša Nelević, Dajana Maraš, and Natalija Đaletić did not receive the necessary majority support from the Board, leading to a new public call for members.
