Slovak President Zuzana Čaputová has suspended the director of the Slovak Information Service (SIS), the country’s intelligence agency, pending an investigation into corruption allegations. The decision follows reports regarding the handling of an investigation into a high-profile criminal case known as “Operation Judas.” Details surrounding the allegations remain limited, but reportedly concern potential interference and improper conduct within the SIS. President Čaputová cited concerns about the integrity of the investigation and the need to ensure the independence of law enforcement. The suspended director, whose name has not been widely released in initial reports, will be subject to an internal audit. This action underscores growing scrutiny of corruption and potential political interference within Slovak institutions. Further details are expected as the investigation progresses.
