On Wednesday, a panel of the Specialized Criminal Court, Banská Bystrica branch, ruled to sever the case of Jana Šlachtová, charged in the Donovaly and Báč cases, into separate proceedings. She was originally charged together with Marian Kočner and Peter Pech. aktuality.sk ↗
The reason for the decision was how the hearing developed, when Šlachtová appeared in court without a lawyer. Already on Tuesday, the panel had to interrupt the main hearing after she declared that she had not waived her right to a defense. According to published information, she also claimed that a signature related to this act had been forged. ta3.com ↗
Yet at the start of the trial last year, Šlachtová had made a plea of guilty. In her case, therefore, evidence was only supposed to be heard in relation to the length of the sentence. However, the new procedural situation caused the court to separate her part of the case from the proceedings conducted against the other defendants. pravda.sk ↗
The Donovaly and Báč cases concern suspicions of economic crime. Following the severance of Šlachtová's case, her matter will continue separately, while the main proceedings against the other defendants are to continue separately as well, according to the panel's decision. SITA ↗
