Rok Snežič, znani poslovni svetovalec in davčni strokovnjak, je izrazil razočaranje glede odločitve Luke Mesa, sokoordinatorja Levice in kandidata za župana Ljubljane, da ne bo prevzel podjetja Klukec d.o.o., ki mu je Snežič namenoma pripravil prek pravnomočne izvršbe. Snežič trdi, da je Mesec javno lažil svojim volivcem, saj je predlagal, da bo prevzel podjetje in pokazal svoje podjetništvo, vendar zdaj prizna, da se je zlagal in ne bo uveljavil izvršbe. Snežič je podjetje Klukec d.o.o. prevzel brezplačno in ga preimenoval, da bi Mesecu omogočil uresničitev svoje napovedi. Mesec pa je potezo označil kot 'slab smisel za humor' in poudaril, da ne bo uveljavil izvršbe na tem podjetju.

The Slovenian parliament is discussing a proposed law related to parliamentary investigations, which has sparked debate between the ruling coalition and the opposition. The governing party, SDS, emphasizes the importance of allowing parliamentary inquiries into matters of public interest, particularly when there are suspicions of political, systemic, or institutional responsibility. They support the initiative but stress that such investigations must adhere to constitutional principles, respect human rights, and uphold the separation of powers. Meanwhile, the opposition parties, including NSi, SLS, and Fokus, acknowledge the voters' desire for a referendum on the issue but criticize the arguments behind the referendum proposal. They argue that the new law does not grant additional powers to parliamentary investigations but prevents their blocking, ensuring accountability while protecting individual rights.

Former MP Boris Mijič has transferred ownership of his company Progros to tax advisor Rok Snežič through a free transfer agreement, effectively ending his involvement with the firm. The company was renamed Klukec d.o.o. and its main activity changed to 'rejo kamel,' a term used to describe a legal process where a debtor’s assets are seized by creditors. This move comes after Progros faced significant financial difficulties, including unpaid wages and taxes owed to employees and the state, with debts exceeding €41,000. Snežič explained the change in company name and activity as a strategic decision to avoid competition from MP Luka Mesec, who holds a legal claim against him. Mesec, a member of the Left Party, has a legally enforceable claim against Snežič for several thousand euros, which he claims could allow Mesec to access Snežič’s assets if he becomes mayor of Ljubljana. Snežič also commented on Mesec’s candidacy for mayor, suggesting that his ability to resolve these financial issues would determine whether voters’ votes are wasted.
