The president's office denied access to the video, and now they're wondering how it got out.

The office of Slovenia's president was denied access to a video recording related to a traffic accident involving the president and her friend, which has now become publicly available before the investigation into the incident is complete. The office requested the footage immediately after the accident due to internal procedures but was blocked by authorities handling the ongoing investigation. Prosecution officials informed them they would provide the footage after the preliminary investigation concludes. The president admitted she was not wearing a seatbelt during the accident and expressed regret. The incident has sparked speculation, especially regarding her friend Viktorija Krivolucka, who was also involved. Opposition leader Robert Golob criticized the lack of transparency and suggested the ruling coalition might want to avoid revealing the truth to continue spreading misinformation.
