Milan Lucansky, a former head of the Slovak national police in an attempted captivity, attempted to commit suicide, his condition is in crisis, Slovak news portals reported, his information was confirmed by the Slovak Ministry of Justice.

Denník N wrote that Lucansky was checked every 30 minutes in his cell, which was even constantly monitored by a camera. According to the Slovak portal, the former captain of the national police hung himself over the stove.

The former head of the National Police is one of those detained by the Slovak National Law Enforcement Agency (NAKA) during its raids in November and December, which caused serious repercussions. The police operation, organized under several different pseudonyms, mainly detained senior police, intelligence and other officials, as well as economic actors considered influential.

Those involved were mostly prosecuted for corruption, money laundering, abuse of power or support for criminal activities. The Slovak Ministry of Justice has yet to provide details about the suicide attempt, and its spokesperson promised more information about the case on Wednesday. Lucansky’s case had been very dusty for almost three weeks, when a former head of the national police who was in pre-trial detention at the time had to be transferred to hospital from Presov in custody with a serious head injury acquired in circumstances hitherto unclear. The specific causes of this previous head injury to a senior police officer have not been clarified to date, and authorities have ruled out the possibility that the trauma was the result of outside intervention.

The strongest member of the Slovak parliamentary opposition, Robert Fico, led by the Directional Social Democracy (Smer-SD) and the Voice of Social Democracy (Hlas-SD), founded by the previous head of government, Peter Pellegrini, also responded it’s a statement. They expressed their previously expressed opinion that Slovak Prime Minister Igor Matovic would use police detention for political struggle.
