ANO leader Andrej Babiš under fire for seeking compromising info on foreign minister

The head of the opposition ANO party Andrej Babiš is under fire for having requested his associates to find compromising information about Foreign Minister Jan Lipavský and his family. The mail which contained vulgar language was accidentally sent to the wrong address and later reported on by Novinky.cz. Lipavský expressed disgust at the content of the email. Members of the ruling collation accused the opposition leader of using stb tactics, referring to the methods of the former communist secret police. Babiš later apologized for the vulgar language, but said he saw nothing wrong with his actions.
