Former secret service chief suing Slovakia in Strasbourg SPECIAL Prosecutor DuSan Kovaeik on September 22 drew the curtains on the final act in Slovakias longest running political crime saga, the prosecution of former secret service chief Ivan Lexa for allegedly ordering an assassination while he ran the SIS from 1995 to 1998.

Kovaeik told ajoint press conference with Attorney General Dobroslav Trnka that the charges had been dropped against Lexa for orchestrating the 1996 murder of Robert RemiaS, akey figure in the investigation of apolitical kidnapping blamed on the SIS.

The case was shelved after an investigation lasting almost a decade because the evidence it rested on was weak.

Crown witness Karol Szatmary, an organized crime boss from Veke KapuSany in eastern Slovakia, testified that Lexa had ordered the murder through the Bratislava underworld.

However, police later discovered that the man Szatmary said had given him this information in 1998, hitman Imrich Olah, had been killed by Szatmary himself the year before.
