Education Ministry knows who published Roma students’ personal information

Education Minister Josef Dobeš says he knows who was responsible for publishing the sensitive information of Roma students on the ministry’s website on Monday. Mr Dobeš told reporters on Wednesday that he was still unsure whether the leak was intentional or accidental, but that the individual will be fired. Information about almost 900 Roma students receiving financial support – including their names, addresses and dates of birth – was published temporarily on Monday on the website of the Ministry of Education before being reported on by Czech Television.
