The Center for Research, Transparency and Accountability (CRTA) said Wednesday that, after 28 hours, the police left its office, taking with them copies of over 8,500 pages of project documentation.
“We document everything in detail and according to the law (including project, donor, audit, and financial reports…). Perhaps no one expected us to have such extensive documentation,” CRTA said in a post on the X social media platform.
The Chief Public Prosecutor of the Higher Public Prosecutor’s Office in Belgrade, Nenad Stefanovic, said Tuesday that the Prosecutor’s Office had ordered the police to seize from four NGOs in Serbia, for now, documents related to donations from the US Agency for International Development (USAID), procedures for spending of USAID funds, and whether there was an obligation to inform donors about the intended use of these funds.
Police have started collecting information on the operations of the CRTA, Civic Initiatives, Policy Center, and Trag Foundation.
