Zagreb, September 7, 2022 – Despite no involvement in any of the wrongful practices that surfaced around INA recently, Mr Sándor Fasimon has submitted his resignation as President of the Management Board of INA to Supervisory Board.
„I was utterly shocked to learn about the actions of Damir Škugor and his associates. During the past ten years, INA has come a very long way: from the brink of bankruptcy, we have reached financial stability, and we are in the process to realize the largest industrial investment in the history of the country with the construction of the Delayed Coker Unit at Rijeka Refinery. Škugor’s actions are despicable and do not represent the identity of INA. This is not who INA is, it’s not who we are. I am proud of our achievements together during the past decade, and despite the fact that I had nothing to do with Škugor’s crimes or any other wrongdoing, as a responsible company leader I must bear the moral accountability for the whole of INA. Therefore, the right thing to do now is to submit my resignation”, said Sándor Fasimon, President of INA’s Management Board.
Mr Fasimon will continue performing his duties as the President of the Management Board of INA until the appointment of his successor in order to secure the continuity of the company’s operation.
Meanwhile, a thorough and strict investigation within the company is being executed. When the investigation has reached a conclusion, company will take further actions.
