On Wednesday, the National Council formally established a parliamentary inquiry committee on the Pilnacek case.

The first meeting of the inquiry committee on the Pilnacek case is scheduled for November 19. The transmission of files and documents must be completed by December 17. The interrogations are set to properly begin in January.

Inquiry Committee on the Pilnacek Case to Clarify Political Influence on Investigations

According to the FPÖ's request, the inquiry committee is intended to "clarify political influence on investigations in the Pilnacek case." The former head of the justice department was found dead in October 2023. The FPÖ suspects political interventions in the investigations through the Ministry of the Interior and the Ministry of Justice, as well as the Chancellery. The Freedom Party aims to examine the period from October 19, 2023, the day before Pilnacek's death, to September 4, 2025, when the responsibility for the investigations was transferred from the Krems public prosecutor's office to the Eisenstadt public prosecutor's office.
