Normalization

The case of a murdered medic Ludmila Cervanova is among one of the best-known criminal cases in the country. Colonel Cervan´s daughter was murdered in 1976, but there is still a lot of confusion remaining in her case. Kidnapping, rape, and murder of a young medical student where seven men were accused, who, despite years spent in prison and several unsuccessful lawsuits, have insisted on their innocence. Seven aging men in one of the most spectacularly successful Slovak documentary claim that they have been entangled in political and judicial conspiracy, among other things, it shows that despite the change of the regime many conditions remain in Slovak society unchanged.
