Be Careful What You Write on Social Media: Man Investigated for Defamation of Croatia

Written by  Dec 16, 2024

A 45-year-old man from Šibenik has found himself in legal trouble after a social media post led to accusations of defaming the Republic of Croatia. The Šibenik police recently conducted a criminal investigation, uncovering evidence of the suspect’s alleged offense, reports Index

According to the investigation, the man posted a text on his social media profile on November 27 that reportedly demeaned and insulted the Republic of Croatia. The content of the post has not been disclosed, but it was deemed severe enough to warrant police action.

Following the investigation, the suspect was handed over to the custody supervisor of the Šibenik-Knin Police Department. A criminal complaint has since been filed with the State Attorney's Office in Šibenik.

The case serves as a stark reminder to be cautious about what is shared online, as even seemingly personal opinions can have serious legal consequences.
