Za ortopedijo ni denarja, za Čeferinove odvetnike pa se v SB Novo mesto zapravlja

The article discusses a controversy at Splošna bolnišnica Novo mesto regarding the allocation of public funds. While the hospital administration has struggled to find money to pay additional work for doctors and staff on the orthopedic ward, leading to conflict with top orthopedic surgeon Dr. Gregor Kavčič, there were no issues with funding for legal representation against him. The hospital is represented by the law firm Čeferin in this legal dispute. According to public data, the hospital paid €25,046.60 to the firm between January and early June 2026, citing the reason as 'CMDT – Payment for trade goods, products, and raw materials,' despite the firm's main activity being legal services. This raises questions about the transparency of cost accounting in public institutions. The situation began due to disagreements over an extra program of operations on the orthopedic department, which escalated into a broader political conflict involving Prime Minister Robert Golob. Instead of addressing staffing and financial issues directly affecting patients and employees, public funds are now being directed toward expensive legal representation. Aleksander Čeferin, president of UEFA and owner

The district court in Ljubljana deliberately conceals information on the purchase of a court building in Lithuania

The article discusses concerns raised by legal expert Igor Kadunc regarding the transparency of the purchase of a new courthouse building on Litija Street in Ljubljana, managed by the Ministry of Justice. Kadunc criticizes the lack of transparency in the procurement process, highlighting issues such as high costs, poor oversight, and insufficient public access to key documents. He argues that the court has deliberately withheld crucial parts of the project’s documentation, including the introduction and summary, to prevent premature disclosure that could harm the rights of defendants in potential criminal proceedings.

Open letter to the National Assembly of the Republic of Slovenia

A citizen named Tone Kuzma from Polhov Gradec writes an open letter to the National Assembly of Slovenia, expressing frustration over perceived double standards in accountability among high-ranking officials. He argues that while ordinary citizens face financial penalties for mistakes, influential individuals seem to escape similar consequences. Kuzma highlights ongoing issues of corruption, mismanagement, and misuse of public funds, citing reports from institutions like the Audit Court and the Corruption Prevention Commission. He calls for comprehensive investigations into questionable expenditures, independent parliamentary inquiries, and legal action against those found responsible, emphasizing that no one should be above the law. The letter demands concrete actions rather than empty promises and criticizes the current system where some appear to operate under different rules.

Bias read (Center): The article presents a citizen's concerns about accountability and corruption within the government but does not exhibit overtly biased language or one-sided sourcing. It frames the issue as a call for transparency and justice without favoring any specific political side.
