"I plan to win the next elections as the leading political party and OBRM-PDUKM to return to power and not to leave the country," said former Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski.

This is how former Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski had his plans in 2017, but if he were in the country now, he would have to be behind bars.

The Hungarian political asylum seeker has so far been convicted in a total of 3 cases, while in the "Tank" case, which is related to the secret purchase of an armored "Mercedes" worth 600 thousand euros, there is also a final decision, with which Gruevski is sentenced to 2 years in prison.

As the perpetrator of the violence in the Center, the court found him guilty and sentenced him to 1 and a half years in prison, while he received his last sentence yesterday for "Plots in Vodno".

He was sentenced to 7 years in prison for concealing property, while a total of 5 apartments were confiscated.

There are 3 other cases in which Gruevski is accused in the court file.

TITANIC - Accused of electoral irregularities, criminal cooperation, misuse of funds for financing the election campaign in 2012 and violation of the right to vote.

TNT - Accused of abuse of office

TRAEKTORJA - Accused of receiving compensation for illegal influence, but here Gruevski's criminal offense is obsolete

Yet although on the run, the former prime minister follows the judicial developments in the country.

Through Facebook, he constantly comments on the decisions and accusations made against him, while assessing that all cases against him are political revenge.

Gruevski has been on the run since 2018, while no institution or official is responsible for his escape./TV21/
