ZAGREB, Croatia (AP) — A senior Croatian state official and several others have been detained on suspicion of corruption. A statement from Croatia’s Office for the Suppression of Corruption and Organized Crime did not specify who was arrested but Croatian media reported it was Croatia’s health minister Vili Beros while the other suspects included doctors and hospital managers. Reports said that police raided Beros’ home in Zagreb, Croatia’s capital, early on Friday. The investigation was reportedly focused on suspected graft in procurement deals for Croatian hospitals. No other details were immediately available.
