Interior minister on Hypo-Alpe-Adria scandal 12 days ago, former Hypo-Alpe-Adria Bank Executive Board President Wolfgang Kutlerer, who is accused of embezzlement of a large amount of money, was arrested in Austria.

Austrian press reported today that suspected drug smuggling boss Darko Saric laundered about EUR 100mn through loans taken from the bank for the construction of the Belville apartment block in New Belgrade.

The investigation in Croatia even led to the highest state officials. According to the Austrian daily, Saric quickly stopped paying off the loans, and the bank internally settled the debt with his previous deposit of EUR 100mn, in effect laundering the money which "probably came from criminal activities". Dacic could not confirm this information, but he said that he would look into it tomorrow in Austria. Austrian police and prosecution are investigating the bank’s former executive board president who is suspected of money laundering through fake and high-risk loans which had been approved in Croatia, Slovenia, Bosnia-Herzegovina and Serbia. President of the Executive Board of the Hypo-Alpe-Adria Bank in Belgrade Vladimir Cupic has denied allegations that the bank had been paying off and charging commission while selling Belville apartments, originally built to house the Student Game athletes. National Bank of Serbia (NBS) told B92 that the bank's Belgrade operation was doing business in accordance with regulations and that it was under constant supervision of the central bank. According to the latest available information for the second quarter of 2010, the bank's branch in Serbia is highly solvent and liquid.
