More than 13,000 people have joined the criminal complaint against the Prime Minister
Police have begun investigating Prime Minister Robert Fico for treason and other criminal offenses, announced the leader of the opposition party SaS, Branislav Gröhling.
“More than 13,000 people have joined the criminal complaint, making it the largest in history,” said Gröhling.
The criminal complaint was sent from the General Prosecutor’s Office to the regional prosecutor’s office and from there to the police. “Fico is suspected of serious criminal offenses. I appreciate that both the prosecution and the police are taking action in this matter and did not sweep it under the rug,” added the SaS chairman.
Party representatives filed multiple criminal complaints at the end of February. According to them, Fico, through his statements and actions aimed at stopping the supply of emergency electricity to Ukraine, could have committed several crimes. The complaints focus on suspicions of abuse of power by a public official, treason, inhumanity, breach of duties in managing another’s property, and terrorist acts.

Serious accusations like this should be handled carefully and transparently. The key thing is whether institutions are strong enough to investigate this properly, regardless of who is in power.

Because he is a Russian asset?

They’ll probably just elect another Russian stooge as their leader.

This is an extremely serious accusation and must be handled with complete transparency. Otherwise, it will only serve to help him even more or turn him into a martyr. Here in Romania, we have a precedent that has gone very badly and has allowed the far right to gain a great deal of ground.

I wonder if we will hear about this investigation ever again.

Most people outside of Slovakia don’t know this so I’ll add: this shit happens on a regular basis, the opposition tries to criminalise the coalition. It happens every term to everybody and most of all Fico since he has been elected the most. The key thing is they never managed to actually go through with it.
SaS is a party full of incompetent people with bought degrees. Grohling, a former minister of education, is a known example of this. He has no real legit education(he is supposedly a hair stylist and a boot maker XD though I can’t back that with evidence rn) and I presume he won’t be able to push this anywhere. Fico is very careful not to do anything he could be prosecuted for and for years he has evaded amateur politicians like this guy.
If you have watched any of slovak politics in the last couple months it’s just the opposition throwing shit at the wall and hoping something sticks. It’s laughable how they blame Fico for everything that ever happens in the world. Unfortunately for them it doesn’t work most of the time. Fico is not a good prime minister for sure and he deserves to never be elected ever again but these opposition parties are so incompetent they will never manage to get him actually in jail for anything imo.
The thing is the internet makes a big thing out of everything but most people that actually follow the local politics know this is just another shout from the SaS party to show the people that “hey we are here too and we hate this guy as well!”.

Just wondering: are there conspiracy theories surrounding the attempt on his life?

Someday we might now how vaste an deep the russian assets network really was. Until then any decision that came even remotely close to benefit Russian should be investigated.

European Union needs to create some international organ to investigate corruption (something like Interpol). Many countries receive EU money and there should be a way to investigate and punish those leaders and politicians who misuse those funds and break rules and requirements that are established for EU membership. Trusting corrupt governments to investigate their own corrupt politicians is futile.
