This morning, on August 10, 2026, police officers entered the Slavonski Brod City Administration building. According to information from the 035portal portal, several officers arrived at the building shortly before 10 a.m., with their vehicle parked in front of the entrance. Additionally, as reported by SBOnline, a police vehicle was also spotted in the southern parking lot, behind the building itself, indicating a more extensive operation.
Verification of Allegations
The Brod-Posavina Police Department confirmed to SBOnline that they are conducting "verification of allegations" within the City Administration premises. The specific reason for their arrival has not been officially disclosed. The police emphasized that they are "carrying out official actions and checks at the order of competent authorities," without revealing the nature of the allegations.
An unofficial source from the City Administration briefly confirmed to 24sata only that "the police are still with them," but that no further information can be provided at this time.
Criminal Complaint Against the Mayor
Portal Net.hr, citing SBOnline, reports that the likely reason for the police visit is the filing of a criminal complaint against Mayor Mirko Duspara. According to this information, the complaint also involves Ankica Majetić, the head of the Administrative Department for Economy, as well as several other close associates of the mayor. As reported by SBOnline, the actions are in response to a criminal complaint covering the long-serving mayor and some of his closest collaborators.
The basis for the complaint is media reports about a lack of transparency in the City Administration's operations and potential favoritism toward companies that have been doing business with the City of Slavonski Brod for many years. According to SBOnline, the investigators' interest is reportedly focused on the business relationships between the City and certain private companies with which the local government has been cooperating for years, checking whether there were elements of abuse of office or illegal favoritism in the contracts. Details of the investigation are not yet known, and official statements from city leaders are expected after the searches and police interviews are completed.
