Poll: less than 50% of Czechs trust the police

Less than one half of Czechs trust the police, suggests a new poll conducted by the STEM agency and published on Thursday. According to STEM, the public’s attitude towards the police remains unchanged since the last such poll was conducted in 2004. The poll also suggested that only one third of Czechs have faith in the country’s judicial system, with only 28 percent of Czechs saying they believed that this country’s courts were doing a good job. A mere two percent of those questioned said that they believed Czech judges were working well and in a trustworthy manner.
