Trial in Major Očistec Corruption Case Postponed After Opening Day
Share:
The trial in Slovakia's high-profile Očistec corruption case began at the Specialized Criminal Court in Banská Bystrica after more than four years since charges were filed, but was immediately postponed until June. The court suspended proceedings on the first day and cancelled all scheduled May hearings due to the consolidation of related cases. The Očistec case is one of Slovakia's major anti-corruption investigations handled by the Specialized Criminal Court, which deals with serious organized crime and corruption cases involving public officials and significant financial crimes.
