Brno Court orders liquidation of Night Wolves’ Czech branch

The Brno Regional Court has ordered the liquidation of the Czech branch of the Russian biker group Night Wolves, citing the group’s failure to meet legal requirements, including having a non-existent registered office, the website Seznam Zprávy reported on Monday.

The Night Wolves, a Russian motorcycle club with ties to President Vladimir Putin, has organized controversial rides through Europe to mark the end of World War II. Some countries have considered these events provocative and a security risk.

The court’s decision, made at the end of October, pointed out that the group failed to provide proper documentation for its headquarters and did not submit an application to register a new one.
