Montenegrin authorities have arrested citizen of the Republic of North Macedonia Andrej Tanaskovski, who was wanted for the attempted murder of Marko Ljubisha, a prominent figure known by the nickname “Kan.” The news was announced by local media, citing multiple sources within the Police Department.

Based on the information obtained, the young man was located and arrested in a hideout in the Vidrovan neighborhood of Niksic. In the same operation, 34-year-old Neno Markovic, a resident of this city, was also arrested; he is suspected of hiding the suspect from law enforcement after the serious incident.

According to the official police statement, the incident occurred on August 7, 2025, at the “Maestral” tourist complex in Budva. The 19-year-old Tanaskovski is suspected of firing a firearm twice at 56-year-old Marko Ljubisha-Kan, who is identified as a member of the “Shkaljar” clan within the well-known Balkan drug cartel.

“An international arrest warrant had been issued for the individual with the initials A.T. for the criminal offense of attempted murder. He shot the victim twice, causing head injuries to citizen M.L. In addition, the suspect also faces charges of illegal possession of a weapon and document forgery. Investigations show that A.T., in the preparation phase of the attack, had used a forged ID card with the initials J.G. from Serbia, through which he was lodged in a hotel near the crime scene,” the Montenegrin police statement announced.
