Interior Minister's Inspection Office clears former police chief of committing criminal offence

The Interior Minister's Inspection Office has cleared former police chief Vladislav Husak of committing a criminal offence. The office investigated Mr Husak on suspicion of disclosing classified information. However, it did not prove allegations that Mr Husak revealed the contacts of his subordinate with a Russian intelligence agent, speculation which appeared in the Czech media. Vladislav Husak resigned from his post in March, stating media pressure as the main reason.
