Suicide attempt by Milan Lučanský, former head of the Slovak national police arrested, in critical condition. The information was confirmed by the Slovak Ministry of Justice.

The former national police chief is one of those detained by the Slovak National Law Enforcement Agency (NAKA) during its raids in November and December, prompting a significant response. The police operation, organized under several different pseudonyms, mainly involved high-ranking 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 of the suicide attempt and a spokesperson promised more information on the case by Wednesday.

Milan Lučanský’s case had been a big dust for almost three weeks, when the then head of the national police, who had been detained at the time, had to be transferred to hospital from the custody of the presov in Presov with a serious injury in the head suffered in circumstances hitherto unclear. The specific causes of this prior 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.
