Police Investigate Interior Ministry's 'In Your Own Skin' Public Event

Slovak police are investigating a public event organized by the Interior Ministry after a criminal complaint was filed against it. The complaint, related to an event titled 'Na vlastnej koži' ('In Your Own Skin'), was handed over by a supervising prosecutor to an investigator on June 1, according to Gabriela Kováčová of the Regional Prosecutor's Office in Bratislava. The event in question was organized by the ministry under Interior Minister Matúš Šutaj Eštok, a senior figure in the ruling Hlas-SD party. The transfer of the case from prosecutor to investigator signals a formal escalation of the inquiry, meaning police will now examine whether any criminal conduct occurred in connection with the event's organization or content.
