Vesecka appointed Supreme State Attorney

Renata Vesecka has been appointed Supreme State Attorney. She replaces Marie Benesova, who was dismissed in late September following numerous disputes with Justice Minister Pavel Nemec. Mrs. Vesecka was asked to run the Supreme State Attorney's Office on a temporary basis and the government said it was convinced she was the right candidate for a permanent position. The Justice Minister proposed her appointment saying she had handled the job with skill and responsibility.
