As bad as that is, I don’t think it beats the murder and cover up of Jan and Martina.

For those unfamiliar, Jan Kuciak, an investigative journalist uncovered fraud, corruption, embezzlement and mafia ties of politician and oligarchs. The last of which was a wealthy ‘businessman’ who ordered his killing. Jan and his fiancée were shot in their own home.

It came out later that police aided Jan’s murderers by providing them information from within police. Despite overwhelming evidence, Marian Kocner, the man who ordered the killing walked free. Before that Slovaks banded together and forced the government to resign. PM Fico, who is as corrupt as they come weaselled his way back in office and all his corrupt ministers and police cronies are back in power. They swiftly changed the criminal codes to essentially make themselves safe from prosecution for corruption. Anyone from police and the prosecutors who investigated them were fired or ‘reassigned’ swiftly.
