PM Nečas: Supreme State attorney most likely to be fired

Supreme State Attorney Renáta Vesecká will most likely be fired, Prime Minister Petr Nečas told reporters on Monday. Mr Nečas said that her case had been “99.99 percent” resolved but that he first needed to discuss the issue with the other parties in the government; one of them, the Public Affairs party, has been pushing for Ms Vesecká to go over her alleged inability to cope with the reforms put forward by the centre-right cabinet. She has also been under pressure to resign due to her involvement in the scandal relating to a former deputy prime minister, Jiří Čunek. Renáta Vesecká was accused of interfering with the investigation of Mr Čunek’s alleged bribery case; she was labelled part of “judicial mafia” by her predecessor whom she took the court but lost.
