30th anniversary of independence milestone marked
MARIBOR - A ceremony marking the 30th anniversary of one of the major events in Slovenia's independence efforts was held in Maribor as Slovenia remembered Operation North, a police campaign which prevented a disputed rally that Serbian nationalists wanted to stage in Ljubljana. The ceremony was hosted by the Sever union of police veteran associations, which also observes its day on 1 December to mark the police campaign in 1989 preventing the attempted nationalist rally.
Police officer injured in Izola hospital shooting suing state for compensation
LJUBLJANA/KOPER - The police officer who was injured in the 2016 shooting at the Izola general hospital is suing the state for damages, according to media reports. Three years after the attack, he is still on a sick leave, while the damages he received from insurers did not cover his costs. A 70-year-old man who seriously injured the police officer in August 20016 had shot and killed another police officer and a doctor in the Izola hospital shooting. The police officer was injured as he attempted to prevent the shooter from fleeing the crime scene. The shooter was killed in the process.
Another Hypo bank corruption trial starts
LJUBLJANA, 30 November - A pretrial hearing was held at the Ljubljana District Court on Friday in an abuse of office case featuring former bankers Andrej Oblak and Božidar Špan, and former Vegrad executives Hilda Tovšak and Matej Košič as defendants. The two bankers pleaded not guilty, while Tovšak will enter her plea later due to poor health, Večer reported. The prosecution claims that Oblak as director of companies from the Hypo Alpe Adria group abused his office between 2003 and 2006 in cooperation with Špan through a series of ownership share deals.
