The Office of the Chief State Prosecutor (DORH) on Friday issued a statement saying that there were no grounds for suspicion that while being the Justice Minister, Ingrid Anticevic Marinovic could have abused her office by signing the said consent,
The media recently reported that Anticevic Marinovic did a favour to her husband's client Drago Jurisic, as her signature to the paper helped him to swap his petrol station in Bosanski Brod , Bosnia-Herzegovina, with a petrol station in Luzani in Croatia. The Croatian national oil company INA also claimed ownership over the Luzani petrol station at the time.
Anticevic Marinovic recently resigned from all senior positions in the opposition Social Democratic Party (SDP) over media allegations on her involvement in scandals surrounding the work of her husband.
The Zagreb municipal office of the State Prosecutor explained that it was the civil law department of the ministry that had drawn up a decision on the consent, and Anticevic Marinovic signed the document in her capacity as the minister.
