Constitutional experts: no legal obstacles to Babiš’ candidacy for president

The country’s constitutional experts say there is no legal obstacle in the way of ANO leader Andrej Babiš running for president despite the fact that he is facing charges of subsidy fraud. Constitutional lawyer Jan Kysela says it is unlikely that there will be a final ruling before the election date and it will thus be left to voters to decide whether the charges against Mr. Babiš present a moral obstacle.   Other constitutional experts are of the same opinion.
