On Tuesday morning, the Slovak police inspection took action against former officers of the National Criminal Agency (NAKA) under operation 'Kajúcnik', apprehending four current and two former officers, along with one civilian. The operation aimed to address serious criminal activities reportedly involving extortion and the organized abuse of public office authority. These allegations have drawn significant attention as they implicate high-ranking officials responsible for law enforcement.

The police inspection's spokesperson, Andrea Dobiášová, confirmed that the detained officers included notable figures such as investigator Ján Čurilla and former colleagues like Pavol Ďurka and Alžbeta Farkašová, along with operatives Branislav Dunčko and Roman Staš. The involvement of these individuals suggests a wide-ranging investigation into systemic corruption within law enforcement institutions, raising questions about the integrity of the justice system in Slovakia.

In a significant move, the police inspection also entered the office of prosecutor Michal Šúrek, indicating that the investigation may extend to judicial members potentially involved in the alleged crimes. This unprecedented operation has unveiled concerns over internal abuses and corruption, challenging public trust in law enforcement and prompting discussions on the necessity for reforms within the justice system in Slovakia.
