TOP 09 files charges against Prague Mayor Adriana Krnáčová

Members of the centre-right TOP 09 Party at Prague City Hall have filed criminal charges against Mayor Adriana Krnáčová, who they accuse of acting illegally by selecting a lawyer in a property dispute on the recommendation of the city’s opponents in the case. According to TOP 09 councillors, the mayor may have broken the law in four instances. Fellow party member Petr Prchal filed charges earlier. TOP 09, along with the opposition Civic Democrats, have initiated an attempt to have the mayor removed from office on Tuesday but lack enough votes.
