Patria Bribery Trial Defendants Say Indictment Makes No Sense

Ljubljana, 12 December - The main Patria defence deal bribery trial resumed at the Ljubljana Local Court on Monday, bringing the reading of the rest of the indictment, which the five defendants, including former PM Janez Jansa, said they did not comprehend. The judge rejected their position as unfounded, claiming they were playing for time.
