Judicial Council Criticizes Justice Minister's Proposal on Collaborator Pardons

Share:

The Judicial Council of Slovakia has joined criticism of Justice Minister Viliam Susko's controversial proposal regarding pardons for communist-era collaborators, finding significant flaws in nearly all sections of the draft legislation. The criticism adds to opposition that emerged last week from Prosecutor General Maroš Žilinka, who also raised objections to the proposal. The draft legislation appears to concern potential pardons or legal relief for individuals who collaborated with the communist regime's security apparatus before 1989, though the specific details of the proposal remain unclear from the available information.
