Slovenian Prime Minister Robert
Golob denied allegations of meddling in the police made against
him by former Interior Minister Tatjana Bobnar at a hearing
before the Corruption Prevention Commission on Wednesday,
according to Slovenian news agency STA. While Golob stated that
witnesses and evidence would back him up, Bobnar stood by her
claims and emphasised the watchdog's independence. Golob, who
clashed with Bobnar in late 2022 over her apparent reluctance to
make more sweeping cuts to police appointments made by the
previous government, told the press after the hearing that he
"gave the commission all the explanations they required and
rejected and refuted all accusations."
