Private companies made money reselling coal This means that private companies collect profit from the deals, the program has revealed. Kolubara is a part of the Serbian state-owned power company EPS, while one of the middlemen in the coal sale has for years been one of the members of the EPS board of directors.

This materialized only for one year, in 2003, while Djeric was sacked the following year.

Also under scrutiny, according to this, are owners of private companies that rented out machinery and bought coal from Kolubara in order to sell it with profit.
