Biography

edit

Milan Urbáni was born on 21 August 1944 in the village of Ratkovská Zdychava in the Rimavská Sobota district. He studied medicine at the Pavol Jozef Šafárik University, graduating in 1967. Following his graduation he practiced as a gynecologist in Banská Bystrica. In the 1970s and 1980s, he practiced medicine in Zambia and Libya. In 1991, he returned to Banská Bystrica, where he practiced until his death.[1]

In the 2002 Slovak parliamentary election, Urbáni won a seat in the National Council of the electoral list of the Movement for a Democratic Slovakia (HZDS). In 2009, Urbáni was implicated in a corruption scandal and subsequently expelled from HZDS. He served as an independent MP for the rest of his term, until the 2010 Slovak parliamentary election.[2]

Urbáni ran in the 2017 Slovak regional elections for the position of the Governor of the Banská Bystrica Region, but only received 1.21% of the vote.[3]
