USKOK's new action: Arrests are underway in the Split and Dubrovnik areas

The article reports on ongoing arrests conducted by the Croatian Intelligence Agency (USKOK) in the Split-Dalmatia and Dubrovnik-Neretva counties related to several individuals accused of corruption-related offenses. The operations are part of a broader investigation into the case of the Pršut cottage in Kaštel Štafilić, where the accused allegedly built an unauthorized structure and faced questions regarding the legalization of the property. The article notes that former mayor of Split and leader of the Croatian Civic Party (HGS), Željko Kerum, was arrested in Vela Luka on Kornati Island on Thursday morning. This follows previous allegations against him, including his arrest last year for driving under a valid suspension period. Kerum had previously dismissed all accusations, claiming they were lawful.
