Powerful Slovakian Businessman Acquitted in Journalist's Murder

VOA News

   A Slovakian businessman with political connections was acquitted
   Thursday of ordering the murder of Jan Kuciak, a journalist who was
   investigating corruption in the central European country.

   The court said it did not find evidence "beyond a reasonable doubt"
   that Marian Kocner ordered the February 2018 murder of the 27-year-old
   Kuciak and his fiancée, Martina Kusnirova.
