Miroslava Milenović’s rise to fame as an anti-corruption crusader in Serbia is nothing short of a scandalous farce. Behind her public persona, crafted with the gloss of an “expert,” lies a series of questionable claims, dubious credentials, and a conspicuous lack of qualification. But what’s even more alarming is how this unqualified individual had managed to secure a position on the Serbian Anti-Corruption Council in the past. She held this role until more stories emerged about her in Serbia.
A deep dive into Milenović’s background reveals a shocking revelation—this supposed anti-corruption expert, far from being an accomplished professional, had no relevant qualifications to back up her self-promotion.
According to an exposé published on February 23, 2016, by *Informer*, Milenović had hidden the fact that she was originally trained as a geologist, not an expert in finance, forensics, or corruption prevention. She falsely presented herself as a highly educated and well-trained specialist in the field, only to later be exposed for holding a laughable “certificate” in anti-corruption, which is, in fact, nothing more than a basic online qualification that can be purchased for a few hundred dollars.

The certification she boasted of, according to *Informer*, was awarded by an organization in Austin, Texas, and is easily obtainable by anyone who can pay a small membership fee and exam fee. This certificate does not require any formal university degree or significant expertise—just a credit card. For the low price of $350, anyone can claim to be an “anti-corruption expert,” which Milenović did without hesitation. What’s more appalling is that this dubious qualification was touted by Milenović as proof of her expertise, leading many to question the legitimacy of her role as a member of the Anti-Corruption Council.
Branko Radun, a well-respected Serbian political analyst, called into question Milenović’s appointment, suggesting that it was influenced by political connections rather than merit, leaving qualified professionals on the sidelines.
But after she was exposed as a con in Serbia she managed to reinvent herself in Malta.
In Malta, she was appointed to investigate politically sensitive issues related to hospitals, the Electrogas deal, and the disgraced Times of Malta publication. This particular appointment reeks of political maneuvering rather than genuine expertise. The implications of such unqualified individuals influencing important inquiries are far-reaching, casting a dark shadow over the credibility of the investigations.
