"Namely, criminal charges were filed against the legal entity "BC" doo from Bijelo Polje and the responsible person in the legal entity RB, as well as against the legal entity "FB" doo from Bijelo Polje and the responsible person in the legal entity SB, also from that city, on suspicion that they committed the criminal offense of transmitting infectious diseases to animals and plants," the police said.
It is suspected, as they say, that these acts were committed in such a way that the individuals named in February 2026, knowingly and contrary to regulations, concealed the existence of an infectious disease in animals, did not report signs of the disease on the farms they owned to the Public Veterinary Service, engaged Komunalno "Lim" Ltd., transported dead laying hens (13,000 from the SB farm and about 5,000 from the RB farm) to the city landfill, which led to the spread of the H5N1 infectious disease to other smaller farms and households, causing material damage whose total amount exceeds 25,000 euros.
"The police continue with intensive activities to suppress criminal offenses and protect public health, with a clear message that all those responsible for such actions will be sanctioned in accordance with the law," the police conclude.
