Numerous protesters on Saturday at the protest of the Association Franak in Zrinjevac in front of the Supreme Court asked the court to make a decision within 15 days on the nullity of the contract with a null and void currency clause and a null and void variable interest rate.

Sdp president Peđa Grbin, SDP political secretary Mirela Ahmetović and secretary general Vedran Babic joined the protest." We also demand that the Supreme Court within 15 days issue a decision on the right to full compensation of all consumers with converted loans on the basis of the Act on Amendments to the Consumer Credit Act", said Goran Aleksić from the Association Franak. He said that it is completely incomprehensible why it is not clear to individual Supreme Court judges that consumers with conversions must have the same rights as consumers who have not converted loans." It is completely incomprehensible that it is not clear to individual judges that consumer rights can be established only and only by expert testimony, and not by some arbitrary decision of a judge who behaves bureaucratically, instead of respecting the law." They also do not understand that the Conversion Act prohibited consumers from making conversion conditional on any waivers of their rights, so consumers could not and should not waive their future claims on the basis of the later established nullity of the currency clause in the "Swiss" and almost three years after the accepted conversion offers. Consumers did not give up their rights by conversion either informed or uninformed, Aleksic said." And I have to remember here the Government that gave a false statement to the Court of Justice of the European Union and pronounced a heinous lie that consumers gave up their claims by conversion", Aleksić pointed out.The protesters also sent a request to the Government to propose in an urgent procedure and that the Croatian Parliament vote in adequate legal acts to extend the limitation period of claims until December 31, 2024 for all consumer loans with a currency clause in the "Swiss" covered by a collective court ruling in In the case of francs. The protesters came to Zagreb from various parts of Croatia. They displayed banners that read "If the main item and price are null and void, the contract is null and void in its entirety! – The robbed must be returned, the thief must pay!", "6 years after the conversion we have no legal certainty", "Supreme Court, are you waiting for the statute of limitations?", "Only the nullity of the contract is compensation!" ... Grbin said that in 2015, when it was supposed to, the SDP government reacted, and after that only passivity, both from this Government and from the court." The fight that is being waged for the interests of debtors in Swiss francs is the same struggle that we have to wage today against debt collectors, because the story is the same. On the one hand, we have those who get rich, and on the other hand we have citizens who destroy," Grbin said.
