Penava, the Ministry of Internal Affairs publishes pictures of fugitives robbing traffic, why not the torcida? And don't forget, you're part of this government!Predsjednik Domovinskog pokreta (DP), Ivan Penava, optužuje policiju za neproporcionalnu obraduju torcidaša koji su sudjelovali u skandiranju nacističkih i antisemitskih parola prije utakmice Hajduka i Ajaxa. Penava navodi da policija objavljuje slike osumnjičenika iz Torcide, dok ne postupa isto prema bjeguncima koji orobe trafiku. On tvrdi da DP postaje jedina hrvatska parlamentarna stranka koja javno zaštićuje torcidaše. Ministar unutarnjih poslova Davor Božinović, koji je dio iste vlade kao i DP, odgovori je da policija djeluje profesionalno i u skladu s zakonom, a da objava fotografija osumnjičenika nije neobična praksa. Penava je naglasio da DP neće ostavati vlasti bez prigovora, ali da će to učiniti samo kad se pojave specifične okolnosti, poput opstrukcije procesa otkrivanja komunističkih zločina ili ako koalicijski partneri postanu bliži SDSS-u nego DP-u.

Puhovski: Never in the political life of Croatia have I heard such an incoherent press as PenavinaIvan Penava, leader of the Domovinski Pokret (DP) and Deputy Speaker of the Croatian Parliament, held a press conference in Split criticizing the police handling of a situation involving members of the Torcida football ultras group who shouted antisemitic slogans before a match between Hajduk and Ajax. Penava's remarks were described as incoherent by political analyst Žarko Puhovski, who noted that Penava appeared to misunderstand legal procedures and police protocols. Puhovski suggested that Penava’s comments were not a genuine attempt to leave the ruling coalition but rather an effort by the DP to assert itself as an independent political force amid poor ratings. He also stated that the DP lacks the political strength to overthrow the government if it left the coalition, noting that Prime Minister Andrej Plenković has backup support.

What's behind Penavi's attack on the Ministry of Internal Affairs? Is his problem the Torcida treatment, or is it something else entirely?Ivan Penava, leader of the Domovinski Pokret (DP) party, criticized the Ministry of Internal Affairs (MUP) for its handling of the situation involving the Torcida fan group after their match against Ajax. Penava accused the MUP of overreacting and questioned whether their actions were democratic, particularly regarding their inability to reach individuals suspected of involvement in the incident.

Net.hrIndependentConservative7 hr. agoFormer Prime Minister Jadranka Kosor responded to comments made by Ivan Penava, leader of the Homeland Movement (DP), who criticized the Ministry of Internal Affairs (MUP) for focusing on the 'Torcida' case. In her social media post, Kosor questioned why DP members did not also criticize those in power who glorify war criminals, referencing DP MP Josip Dabr and Prime Minister Andrej Plenković, whose parliamentary majority depends on DP support. Penava had previously condemned the glorification of Ustasha leader Ante Pavelić but accused the police and media of conducting a 'hunt.'

Butt about the foam: "Who's the chain he's tied to?" We don't know how long it's gonna be.Milorad Pupovac, a member of the Croatian Parliament, commented on the recent outburst by Ivan Penava, leader of the Homeland Movement, who criticized journalists and the Ministry of Internal Affairs (MUP) after some fans chanted Nazi slogans in Split.
