The Montenegrin MUP acted after it received a certificate according to which Jokic became a citizen of Serbia "after June 3, 2006," said the daily Dnevne Novine.
The case has now been sent back to Kotor's competent authorities, who should take a statement from Jokic.
In the beginning of July, Jokic announced that he was a citizen of Montenegro and that he did hold the citizenship of any other country, Tanjug reported on Monday.
He in this way reacted to media reports claiming that, at the time of his election as the head of the Kotor municipality, Jokic had two citizenships - Montenegrin and Serbian.
Montenegro does not allow dual citizenship, while Serbia does.
The question of dual citizenship is one of the open issues between the two countries. Talks had been launched on this topic, but were terminated without any concrete agreement.
What is a perfect dictatorship? It is a dictatorship that can be completely illegal,politically and financially, yet protect its illegal patterns of conducting affairs by legal means.

By stripping people of their citizenship you are technically denying them their civil rights. Montenegrin rose on willingness to seek or compromise on this issue with Serbia suggests that they are using this as a way to provoke Serbia. Does NATO want to deal with this? What about those of the Albanians living in Montenegro who may have citizenship with Kosovo as well? Maybe the perfect dictatorship in Montenegro (Mexico's PRI party was the last historical example of a perfect dictatorship) will conveniently leave these people alone. Brian Ghilliotti

This is the most stupidest thing I have read . First of all Montenegrin does not exist you are either Serbian or Albanian in Montenegro. These people in power in Montenegro need to be jailed for dividing people.
