Hypo Bank in Austria has been bought by the Austrian government for 1 euro. In Croatia Hypo Alpe Adria bank is under investigation for corruption, organized crime and many other issues. The investigators have apparently seized the books and former PM Sanader is under fire for accepting bribes from Hypo bank.
Furthermore Hypo Bank has problems with certain mortgages and in all a picture starts to emerge that this bank will collapse quite soon. The fall out will be enormous and although the government guarantees money up to 100,000 Kuna it is obvious that the government does not have this money available. What will happen with the customers of Hypo bank is a big question at this moment.

@ Londoncro,
Please enlighten us and explain why you are so sure Sanader did not receive the reported 800,000 Deutsch Marks.

@ Londoncro
You are right and Santa Claus still exists, or am I wrong ?
If it smells like 's.h.i.t.', looks like 's.h.i.t.' and tastes like 's.h.i.t.' ...........it probably is.

Ooooooooooh don't I know that... when you have a cop entering your premises without you being there and without him having a warrant, when you tell that to the judge and still get a fine.... there's something wrong in this land!

@ Siriwan,
You are right and that is exactly the reason why Croatia does NOT belong in the EU at any time soon. This country is still old school Tito or communism with a sauce of democracy on top of it to make it look modern. The core is however corrupt and has nothing to do with the values of the Western European countries. Ever since the negotiations started not a single thing has changed on the judicial level, it is all window dressing.
