Construction noise stops interrogation: Benko has to wait for explosive details!

Josefstadt, Österreich - The ex-signa managing director Rene Benko has been in custody since January 24, 2025.

On Wednesday, June 12, 2025, Benko was to be interrogated by two chief prosecutors from the Economic and Corruption Pastan Panel office. But the session had a bumpy start: after the interrogation started at 10:20 a.m., it had to be interrupted after only a few minutes due to extreme construction noise. Despite the efforts to find a quieter negotiating space, those responsible were faced with the fact that there was no suitable space available. The re -interrogation finally started at 10:40 a.m., when Benko initially got up to answer a question. Suddenly the interrogation manager decided to stop the interrogation at 11 a.m., as the volume of the construction made it impossible to communicate. A new appointment in another location should now be set to clarify the explosive details, which Benko wanted to announce a controversial villa deal and the role of the former Signa Finance chief Manuel P., as [today] (https://www.heute.at/s/peinlich- justz-panne-verhoer-benko-1201110) reported.
