Dispossessed Razsochy land owners might want their land back

The project of Razsochy hospital is a sensitive topic to local inhabitants of Bratislava’s Lamac borough and if the project is really scrapped, there is the risk that original land owners, dispossessed by the state, will demand the return of their land, Lamac borough mayor Igor Polakovic told TASR on Sunday. Polakovic underlined that the land plots were taken away from their owners because of the hospital project.

The mayor pointed out that the project is a sensitive topic for the Lamac inhabitants, adding that the Health Ministry has not informed the Lamac borough about the latest plan to change the location of the hospital again. "We've learned only from the media about the new intent to build the hospital in Ruzinov and the plan to construct the National Institute for Children Diseases in its place in Razsochy instead. That, of course, we see as unfortunate and unorthodox," he claimed. 

The mayor added that the Razsochy hospital project was in the final state of preparation when the Government decided to nix it this past week.
