A Ukrainian man suspected of the murder of a Roma youth, which took place in mid-June near the Brno Reservoir, left the gates of the remand prison. The Brno Regional Court decided in a closed session that the man’s further stay in custody was not necessary. The information was confirmed by the spokesperson of the Regional Prosecutor’s Office in Brno, Hynek Olma.

According to information from Novinek, the court should have even expressed doubts about whether the act at the dam happened as the public lawsuit claims.
