Repáková is the very first judge to leave her post voluntarily after her communication with Kočner was published. Moreover, she was one of the judges whose mobile phones were taken by the police in August.

She has not been judging for about two weeks as she asked for her performance as a judge to be suspended in late October, Sme wrote.
