Who was Scepan Roganovic?

Scepan Roganovic was the older son of Niko Roganovic, who was killed in Savina in late July 2017. At the end of April 2017, an attempt was made to kill his younger son Dusko, when an explosive device was activated in a moving car.

The bomb was activated when the vehicle was passing through the Main Bus Station, resulting in Roganovic losing both of his legs. In late December 2018, Vladimir Roganovic, the first cousin of Scepan and Dusko, was shot and killed in Vienna.

Scepan Roganovic, the least known of the Roganovics so far, was arrested during Operation Mimoza in Herceg Novi in late October last year on charges of usury. He and two other men were accused of lending money to 21 persons in this way.

They used threats to collect about half a million euros in interest rates. The police seized 4,000 euros after the search of three Herceg Novi properties owned by those arrested, along with property contracts suspected of being "earned" through usury, payment cards for accounts with tens of thousands of euros, cell phones, and an armored car with a space suitable for hiding objects.
