Slovak court pauses legal change limiting cooperating witness testimony

The measure, among legal changes fast-tracked under Prime Minister Robert Fico, would require courts to reject testimony from cooperating witnesses who were charged in a case, if they had ever lied in any past testimony. The court said in a statement on Wednesday that it had halted the provision pending further review to avoid affecting a number of ongoing cases. The opposition said the change had been tailored to help Tibor Gaspar, deputy speaker of parliament from Fico’s party Smer-SSD, in a pending criminal case which involves a cooperating witness. Smer denies the aim is to shield Gaspar, a former police chief who faces charges of corruption and abuse of power. 🔗 Leggi su Internazionale.it
