SIS Hasn't Obtained Any Information on Actions Concerning SIS Chief Alac Yet

Bratislava, August 17 (TASR) - The Slovak Intelligence Service (SIS) hasn't yet obtained information from the law-enforcement authorities about any actions concerning SIS director Michal Alac, SIS spokesperson Katarina Nemova told TASR on Thursday. "For this reason, the Slovak Intelligence Service will be able to provide its stance to the public only when information about relevant circumstances and especially the reasons behind the medialised procedures of law-enforcement authorities in this case is available to it," said Nemova. The National Crime Agency (NAKA) reportedly detained at least two individuals earlier on Thursday, with several media outlets reporting that they were members of an Inspectorate team that previously investigated NAKA officers. In addition, NAKA allegedly tried to raid the homes of SIS head Alac and SIS ex-head Vladimir Pcolinsky. NAKA officers were also reportedly sighted at the SIS headquarters and the National Security Bureau. ko/df
