CINS finds more than 200 EXPO contractors, including firms with criminal and political links
On June 22, CINS published an investigation into where money is going on the EXPO 2027 complex, national stadium, and infrastructure in Surcin: reporters say they could not obtain a full official list, but confirmed more than 200 firms through documents, interviews, and databases. Examples include Makis beton, where CINS links 70% of last year's 2.1 billion dinars in inflows to EXPO, PZP Valjevo, NM Kop, C&LC Kameni agregati, CAP 1 ALCZ, and Betonjerka Cacak.

Who holds EXPO work: Aca Rosavi's sister, an Arkan-case convict, Pink Panter, Bagzi's son, and a firm linked to Cume
(U čijim rukama su poslovi za EXPO: sestra Ace Rošavog, osuđeni u slučaju Arkan, Pink Panter, Bagzijev sin, firma koja se povezuje sa Čumetom)
CINS writes that since mid-2023 the EXPO 2027 exhibition and residential complex, national football stadium, and related infrastructure have been rising in Surcin, but information on contractors remains opaque. After unsuccessful attempts to obtain an official list, reporters used interviews, company contacts, court and other documents to build a database of more than 200 firms confirmed as contractors, subcontractors, or suppliers. CINS says the list includes firms linked to relatives and associates of people from criminal circles and to people close to the authorities: Makis beton with Marijana Djeric Mandres, sister of Aleksandar Vidojevic - Aca Rosavi, and Vujadin Krstic's 40% stake through Macva novogradnja; PZP Valjevo, formally about 74% owned by lawyer Dusan Vasovic and linked by CINS to Ljubisa Buha Cume; NM Kop owned by the son of Dejan Milenkovic Bagzi; C&LC Kameni agregati owned by Predrag Lovric, convicted in Liechtenstein as a Pink Panter member; CAP 1 ALCZ of Djordje Prelic, a former Alkatraz leader convicted over Brice Taton's killing; and Betonjerka Cacak, whose director says it contracted with Power China.
