PS accuses Minister Migaľ of distributing millions to companies close to oligarchs
The opposition movement Progresívne Slovensko (PS) has accused Investment Minister Samuel Migaľ of channeling, through the state-owned company MIRRI Developments, tens of millions of euros in favor of companies linked to oligarchs. PS MP Jozef Hargaš stated this on Friday at a press conference, at which he also announced that the opposition is filing a criminal complaint in connection with the case. ekonomika.sme.sk ↗
According to Hargaš, the case concerns a call by MIRRI Developments focused on the development of affordable rental housing, in which the opposition identified several irregularities. According to him, the competition lasted only four working days, during the summer holiday season, assessments of the submitted projects were drawn up only after the set deadlines, and among the successful applicants was also a project that, according to the opposition, is in poor financial condition. Hargaš claims that the minister is directing approximately 23 million euros also toward land without a valid building permit and toward projects that, according to PS, are facing completion problems. aktuality.sk ↗
MIRRI Developments has rejected the claims made by Progresívne Slovensko. The company publicly responded to the individual objections raised by the opposition and disputed the interpretation of the course of the call and the project selection process as presented by MP Hargaš. teraz.sk ↗
PS has announced that it will expand the original criminal complaint in the case with new facts that, according to the movement, emerged from a further analysis of the project selection process. The investigation into the case, as well as the Ministry of Investment's response to the specific points of the criminal complaint, are not yet known in detail. The dispute between the opposition and the management of MIRRI Developments suggests that the topic of redistributing state funds to support rental housing will continue in the coming weeks as well. teraz.sk ↗
