The Croatian parliament on Wednesday discussed the decisions of the parliamentary Privileges and Credentials Commission (MIP) to strip independent MP Ivo Sanader of immunity from prosecution so he could face charges of wrongdoing in the Hypo bank loan case and of taking 10 million euros in bribes from MOL in exchange for enabling the Hungarian oil company to acquire management rights over Croatia's INA.
MIP head Damir Sesvecan acquainted the Sabor with the decisions the commission made for the Hypo case in early September and for INA-MOL last Monday, while the parliament was still in summer recess.
The decisions immediately took effect as the Sabor was not in session.
The Sabor is expected to formally approve these decisions on Friday.
