Trial of Polancec and lawyer Miletic to start on Friday

Autor: mses
ZAGREB, Sept 15 (Hina) - Former Deputy Prime Minister and Economy Minister Damir Polancec is expected to attend a guilty plea hearing on Friday when his first trial is scheduled to start before the Zagreb County Court in the case of a study commissioned from lawyer Petar Miletic.

Under the indictment issued by the anti-corruption investigative agency USKOK, in 2008 Polancec agreed with Miletic the making of a legal study entitled "Convalidation of years of service and pensions acquired in the territory of the Republic of Croatia under the administration and mandate of the United Nations in the period from 3 December 1991 to 15 January 1998."

Miletic made the study which the Ministry of Economy, Labour and Enterprise never used, but for which it paid half a million kuna.

USKOK alleges that the former minister commissioned the study and paid for it even though he knew that it was not necessary since the issue in question had already been solved at talks between government bodies and Serb workers of the Borovo footwear factory from Vukovar. Polancec took part in those talks, while Miletic represented a group of Borovo workers and was paid by Borovo HRK 1.3 million for his services in January 2009.

USKOK has also issued another two indictments against Polancec.

He is charged with the unlawful allocation of HRK 230,000 for the installation of lighting on a soccer playground in the village of Djelekovec.

Polancec and seven other executives are charged with business malfeasance in the Podravka food company.
