• Varaždin County Prefect Anđelko Stričak (HDZ) rejected allegations by Deputy Mayor Miroslav Marković (SDP) regarding illegal waste storage and announced a defamation lawsuit.
  • Marković earlier reported that he requested documentation on the company Tipos Resurs, whose owners were arrested for illegally storing 35,000 tons of waste.
  • Stričak claims he never met with the Šincek spouses and that the documents Marković refers to date from before his term.
  • Stričak questioned why Mayor Neven Bosilj in 2021 authorized a former business partner of Josip Šincek to collect information on waste management.
