Continued trial of Obersnell and others: Damaged Rijeka for at least 176,000 euros

The trial of former Rijeka mayor Vojko Obersnel, former water polo player Samir Barać, and two others continues regarding alleged abuse of position and malfeasance related to the sale and repurposing of city land between June 2008 and the end of 2016. The indictment alleges that Barać’s company, Viktoria, benefited from improper practices during these transactions, causing at least €176,000 in damage to the City of Rijeka. These actions reportedly included undervaluing property sales, recognizing unjustified increases in property values, and questionable removal of liens. As a precautionary measure, the court has temporarily blocked assets worth over €200,000 across the accused individuals. The trial is ongoing, with new witnesses being heard.
