Police have interrogated the 51-year-old woman who became the victim of a
hit-and-run accident involving the notorious Prague lobbyist Roman
Janoušek. According to the woman’s lawyer, Wednesday’s interrogation
lasted roughly one hour. The testimony of the Vietnamese-born woman, who
was treated at hospital for weeks following the accident, confirmed details
of the police investigation and appeared truthful, her lawyer added. In
late April, the hit-and-run accident made headlines. Days before it
occurred, wire taps of conversations between entrepreneur Roman Janoušek
and former Prague mayor Pavel Bém, over whom he is said to have had
considerable influence, became public.
