BRATISLAVA (Reuters) - Four suspects in last year's killings of a Slovak investigative journalist and his fiance have also been charged with ordering the murders of two prosecutors and a lawyer, national police said on Wednesday.
The February 2018 murder of Jan Kuciak, who uncovered fraud cases involving politically connected businessmen, and his fiance Martina Kusnirova cast a spotlight on corruption and cronyism in the central European country and sparked mass protests that forced then-Prime Minister Robert Fico to resign.
