ZAGREB, October 1, 2018 - Social Democratic Party (SDP) leader Davor Bernardić said on Monday that his party would call for a commission of inquiry for the fake texts scandal and wondered what the USKOK anti-corruption office, State Prosecutor's Office (DORH) and Chief State Prosecutor Dražen Jelenić were doing in investigating this case.
"We will propose that an inquiry commission be formed for the fake texts scandal and the abuse of secret services," Bernardić told a press conference.
Bernardić insists that the Croatian Democratic Union (HDZ), the ruling party, is a byword for corruption and clientelism and now has become "the centre for the intelligence underworld."
"My question is what USKOK, DORH and Chief State Prosecutor Dražen Jelenić are doing in regard to that affair and that it is why it is our duty that this affair isn't swept under the carpet like the Hotmail and Borg group scandals," said the opposition chief.
