Police have charged three driving examiners and the head of a driving
school east of Prague with abuse of authority by a public officer and
other
crimes, anti-corruption police unit spokesman Jaroslav Ibehej revealed on
the unit’s website. The four are suspected of having helped more than 30
people obtain valid driver’s licenses, either by helping clients during
their driver’s exam, or allowing them to miss the exam altogether,
filing
protocol on their behalf. The owner of the driving school, meanwhile,
allegedly promised a client they could skip mandatory driving lessons
altogether. The suspects in the case operated in Přelouc, near Pardubice,
and Nový Bydžov, in the area of Hradec Králové.
