Indictment issued against suspects of financial wrongdoings affecting HPB

Autor: mses
ZAGREB, July 8 (Hina) - The Croatian Office for the Suppression of Corruption and Organised Crime (USKOK) has issued an indictment against three former senior executives of Hrvatska Postanska Banka (HPB) -- Josip Protega, Ivan Sladonja and Mario Kirinic -- and against eight clients of this Croatian bank for conspiracy to commit crimes, abuse of office, instigation to abuse office and money laundering, the Office of the Chief State Prosecutor said on its web site on Thursday.

The statement gives only the initials of the indictees, ten of whom are Croatian citizens and one holds dual citizenship: Croatian and Bosnian.

According to the indictment, from 2005 to 12 August 2009, Josip Protega, in his capacity as the bank's CEO, organised a group consisting of him, managing board member Ivan Sladonja and financial director Mario Kirinic, who saw to it that loans which deviated from usual loans offered by the bank be given to those clients.

With those loans, which turned into non-performing loans, defendants have acquired illegal gains while the bank suffered losses.

Protega's illegal gain came to HRK 4,436,450, Sladonja allegedly earned HRK 4,355,610, and Kirinic's illegal gain was HRK 4,523,098, according to the indictment.

One of the clients, G.J., is accused of money laundering.

The investigating agency is continuing the probe in this case, dubbed Bankomat.
