Gordana Jankuloska
Gordana Jankuloska (Macedonian: Гордана Јанкулоска, pronounced [gɔr'dana jan'kuɫoska]; born 12 October 1975) is the former 10th Interior Minister of the Government of Macedonia (now North Macedonia). She was a Minister in four cabinets of Nikola Gruevski. During the 2015 Macedonian protests, activists demanded that Gruevski and his cabinet resign. Jankuloska and two others resigned from their positions.[1] She was replaced as the interior minister by Mitko Čavkov.[2] Jankuloska was sentenced to 6 years for “misuse of office” by a first-instance court in 2018, but her sentence was reduced by the higher court. She was sent to jail on 28.9.2020, after the court of appeals sentenced her to 4-years for her involvement in the purchase of a luxury car for about 600 thousand euros.[3]
