Second policeman to be prosecuted in connection with sale of Svoboda photo

The Ministry of the Interior has said it wants to prosecute a second police officer in connection with the sale of a photograph of the dead body of popular composer Karel Svoboda to a tabloid newspaper. After Mr Svoboda apparently shot himself last Sunday a photo appeared in the Blesk redtop showing the dead man's hand and a pistol. Another 22-year old officer has already been dismissed from the police force and charged with abuse of office in connection with the incident. If convicted he faces up to 3 years in prison.
