Gorenak Denies Wrongdoing Alleged in Motion to Oust Him

Ljubljana, 21 November - Interior Minister Vinko Gorenak has prepared his defence against the opposition-sponsored motion to oust him. He told the press after Wednesday's cabinet session that the main accusation was not that his ministry had lost some 400 signatures from a referendum request, but alleged procrastination of signature verification, both of which he denies.
