Slovakia's anti-corruption police conducted simultaneous raids in Košice and Rožňava as part of an investigation into crimes damaging the financial interests of the European Union. The operation, codenamed "Database," was carried out by the anti-corruption unit of the National Crime Agency (ÚBOK), which is part of Slovakia's police presidium. The raids are connected to suspected criminal activity involving the misuse of EU funds, though authorities have not disclosed specific details about the nature of the alleged crimes or the targets of the investigation. Both cities are located in eastern Slovakia, where EU structural funds have been used extensively for regional development projects.
