Aktualne.cz: Kubice case shelved for lack of evidence

The Czech internet site aktualne.cz has reported that Czech police have decided to shelve their investigation into the allegedly planned murder of officer Jan Kubice, the head of the country's unit investigating organised crime. A number of individuals including a former chief of staff to two prime ministers were suspected of ties to the case. Aktualne.cz has reported that a plan to kill Mr Kubice was hatched after he presented a classified report in Parliament last May investigating links between organised crime and the civil service. According to the server, police have not found enough evidence to make progress in the case.
