Journalist Karba Rejects Libel Claims Brought by Cardinal Rode

Ljubljana, 13 September - Journalist Dejan Karba rejected at a pre-trial hearing on Friday the libel accusations brought against him and newspaper publisher Delo by Cardinal Franc Rode after the paper broke the story last August that a man was seeking to verify whether Rode was his father. A trial has been scheduled at the Ljubljana District Court for 29 November.
