Last year Jakovcic bought a piece of farmland in Zavrsje, Groznjan municipality, but failed to declare it in his declaration of assets by the end of the year as required. The Commission has found this out and given him 15 days to do so, which he did not do.

Jakovcic said in a statement on Wednesday evening that it was "yet another attempt to discredit him", accusing the Conflict of Interest Commission of joining in the campaign for local elections "in the worst way." "Using institutions of the state in such a way is unacceptable," he said.
