BRATISLAVA, February 24, (WEBNOVINY) – Another document supposedly coming from the workroom of Slovak intelligence services was pasted on the internet. This time it deals with persons managing the 99%-Civic Voice party as well as information on their contacts. According to the document the data was collected from November 2011 until February 2012 by secret service.
The material states that the party is managed and to a large extent financed by Ivan Weiss, running for the parliament on its slate as Nr. 4, and his father. The document also contains names of businesspeople and intelligence services he is intertwined with as well as detailed information on his father, active in defense business. It also states that both father and son have connections with a Russian-Israeli businessman who is described as one of the biggest global illegal arms traders.
According to the document, Weiss closely cooperates with former journalist and ex-SIS counterintelligence head Peter Toth, who however dismissed the accusations. Toth is believed to have been collecting discrediting materials on Ordinary People whom 99% considers their greatest competitor on the political party market.
The report confirms the information that 99% supposedly hired the consulting company which helped Barack Obama to win the presidential election and also participated in Yulia Tymoshenko’s unsuccessful 2010 presidential campaign. The document also informs that Toth is connected to Lucia Gallova, one of the organizers of the anti-Gorilla protests through whom he manipulates the demonstrations.
The party rejects the document as part of a blackmail campaign “paid by the corrupt parliamentary parties” which should distract people from the real Gorilla file, authenticity of which 99% does not question. However, security analyst Milan Zitny says that the report on 99% could be authentic and could be a revenge for the Gorilla file which might have been published by Weiss’ party. Slovak Intelligence Service rejects any connections between the material and Slovak secret services and refuses to comment “irrational fabrications showing up in the election campaign.”
