Social Democrats want to create parliamentary committee to deal with "Kubice report"

The central executive committee of the Social Democratic Party has said it wants to push through the creation of a parliamentary committee to deal with the so-called "Kubice report." The report compiled by police officer Jan Kubice last June indicated that there were alleged links between organised crime and the civil service. The Social Democrats already tried to establish a committee to investigate the matter late last year, but the governing coalition opposed it.

Meanwhile on Friday, Czech police decided due to lack of evidence to shelve their investigation into the allegedly planned murder of Mr Kubice in connection with his report.
