Following the announcement by Croatian Bar Association (HOK) president Leo Andreis that he would sue Croatian President ivo Josipovic for slander, Josipovic said on Wednesday he did not care about the lawsuit the HOK planned to file, the President's Office said in a statement.
"I don't care about the lawsuit the HOK plans to file, I hope (Croatian Democratic Union vice president) Vladimir Seks will represent the Bar Association in court," the statement said.
"The announcement of the lawsuit will not diminish the legal and political problems which are the result of the hasty and politically motivated decision by the HOK (against attorney Anto Nobilo) nor will it clear the dirty conscience of individuals from the HOK leadership who are in a possible conflict of interest in that particular case," the President's Office said.
