Czech Republic and Roma

During a debate between Roma and ministers of the Czech government organised by Romea on Wednesday in Brno, Minister of Justice Pavel Blažek (ODS) assured representatives of the Roma community that there is no such thing as racial justice in the Czech Republic. He thus rejected some of the statements of Roma that the courts judge cases when the perpetrators are Roma and differently when others. He considers the release from custody of a man who is suspected of the June murder near the Brno Dam to be a standard procedure. Blažek described the debate, which was organized by the organizations ROMEA and Romodrom and filmed by ROMEA TV, as beneficial.
