Czech Radio: Prague Castle shredded another 32 intelligence reports

The Office of the President is suspected of having shredded another 32 classified documents, Czech Radio reported on Thursday. They contained, for instance, intelligence information on the activities of Russian armed forces near the border with Ukraine or NATO information on the security situation in Iraq.

The information is based on Prague Castle meeting protocols, which Czech Radio reporters obtained under the Freedom of Information Act.

Earlier this year, Czech Radio reported that the Office of the President had destroyed a classified report on the involvement of Russian secret agents in the 2014 explosions in a munitions depot in Vrbětice, Moravia.

According to an audit carried out by the National Security Authority, the shredding of the document was personally ordered by president Zeman’s head of office, Vladimír Mynář.
