A prosecutor in Trnava has requested three-month prison sentences for two police officers, Ján Čurilla and Pavel Ďurka, who were arrested as part of Operation Penitent. Prosecutor Michal Žeňuch argued that the officers should remain in custody because they could potentially influence witnesses or coordinate their testimonies if released. Operation Penitent is an ongoing criminal investigation, though the specific charges against the officers have not been disclosed. The case highlights continuing efforts by Slovak authorities to address misconduct within law enforcement agencies.
