A Zagreb County Court judge on Wednesday set detention for all five suspects arrested yesterday as part of an investigation by the State Attorney's Office and the police anti-corruption office.

The suspects are former prosecutor Mirela Aleric-Puklin, her husband Goran Puklin, former Agrokor manager Piruska Canjuga, former Croatian lottery company director Zeljko Fadljevic, and Fleksbit company owner Tomislav Gligora.

Detention was set for all suspects to prevent them from tampering with witnesses, and for Gligora and Puklin also to prevent them from repeating the crime.

The five were arrested on Tuesday on charges of abuse of office, conspiracy to commit white-collar crimes and obstruction of justice.

Aleric-Puklin, who was one of the prosecutors in the Agrokor case until 2019, is suspected of having leaked important information from the Agrokor investigation to Canjuga, and the information was conveyed by Aleric-Puklin’s husband Goran Puklin.

The second part of the investigation in this case of obstruction of justice alleges that Puklin made it possible for Gligora’s company Fleksbit to conclude deals with Hrvatska Lutrija, the national lottery of Croatia, in collusive tendering processes in order to gain an unfair advantage.

The deals, concluded in unfair practices, benefited Fleksbit, which was awarded an HRK 8.2 million job of procuring IT services for Hrvatska Lutrija.
