Prosecutor Removed from Kajúcnik Case Over Six-Year-Old Statement

A prosecutor has been removed from the Kajúcnik case after her signature on a statement from six years ago became grounds for her disqualification. The prosecutor was among nearly sixty colleagues who signed a statement in support of prosecutors Šúrek and Repa at that time. The Kajúcnik case is a significant corruption investigation in Slovakia, and the removal of the prosecutor highlights how past professional statements can affect current case assignments in the country's judicial system.
