The Prague Public Transport Company dismisses its CEO

The supervisory board of the Prague Public Transit Company (DPP) removed its CEO in response to new corruption charges that surfaced last week. The DPP, the largest company operated by the City of Prague, with a budget in the tens of billions of crowns, has been repeatedly plagued by corruption allegations and legal actions in the past. The supervisory board voted to remove Petr Witowski from the board of directors, which also means his automatic departure as the company’s CEO.
