The Regional Court in Bratislava ruled on the release of all accused investigators from custody. He justified his release from custody on the grounds that their prosecution was unjustified.

As it was a closed session, no procedural parties were present at it – neither their defenders nor the supervisory prosecutor of the Regional Prosecutor’s Office (KP) in Bratislava were accused.

“The case in question – the complaints of the accused and the prosecutor, was submitted to the Board of Appeal in Bratislava for a decision on September 24,” said KS spokesman in Bratislava Pavol Adamčiak. Pursuant to the Criminal Procedure Code, the statutory time limit for a decision is five working days from the submission of the case for a decision.
