Former justice minister files criminal complaint against Freedom and Direct Democracy Party
Jiří Pospíšil, former justice minister and the current Prague councilor for culture, has filed a criminal complaint against the offensive election campaign of Tomio Okamura’s Freedom and Direct Democracy Party. The party, which is anti-EU and anti-migrants, has put up billboards that depict an African migrant wearing a bloody shirt and wielding a knife. The picture is accompanied by the words "Imported surgeons will not solve the problems of our health care system". Pospíšil says he believes the party is guilty of inciting hatred against a group of people.
