Montenegro's Prime Minister faces an imminent grilling by the judicial authorities after the Supreme State Prosecutor on Tuesday said Milo Djukanovic would "soon" be questioned as part of a reopened investigation into the 2004 murder of a journalist.

Jovanović, editor-in-chief and owner of the daily Dan and well known for his critical reporting, was shot dead leaving his office in Podgorica on 27 May 2004. Prior to his death, Jovanović received numerous death threats.

The investigation resumed on Tuesday with the questioning of several top policemen including the former head of the Podgorica force, Milan Vijanovic, and senior officers Milan Tomic and Tihomir Gacevic, Montenegrin media reported.
