Janez Janša, Igor Bavčar and Boško Šrot - SLOVENIA - A BILLION THROUGH LJUBLJANA - Part 04
Slovenia left Yugoslavia first, joined the euro in 2007 and became the Balkans' star pupil. Its courts and reporters found another country. A defense ministry traded arms under a UN embargo; managers bought their companies with state-bank loans the taxpayer later covered; a former prime minister was convicted over Finnish armored vehicles and freed when the verdict was annulled; one NLB account moved over a billion dollars for sanctioned Iranian banks; and two Slovene brothers, a court found at first instance, ran a Montenegrin cocaine clan's cell and had a man killed. Covers Janez Janša and Patria, Igor Bavčar and Istrabenz, Boško Šrot and Pivovarna Laško, Uroš Rotnik and the TEŠ 6 power plant, Iraj Farrokhzadeh and NLB, and Klemen and Blaž Kadivec and the Kavač clan. Narrated with a synthetic voice.
