Lawyer for opposition leader breaks silence on Project Forum case, denies personal execution claims

The lawyer representing Michal Šimečka, leader of the opposition Progressive Slovakia party, has spoken publicly for the first time about the Project Forum case, according to attorney Harkabus. He requested an official extract from the execution registry to address claims made in the ongoing investigation. The Project Forum case involves allegations related to EU funding that have been used by the ruling coalition to target Šimečka and his party. Harkabus specifically denied claims about personal executions and involvement of the European Public Prosecutor's Office, suggesting that accusations against his client may lack factual basis.
