Good news for a change! After more than two years, the verdict for four anarchists and one environmentalist was acquittal; only one of them was recognized guilty for small offenses, and the court dropped his punishment.
The main charges concerned the support and promotion of the Network of Revolutionary cells (SRB), insurrectional anarchism, as well as blackmail and harm of others property. SRB focused for several years on sabotage of the property of police and capitalists.
So far, no one was convicted and condemned for these actions.
The defendant Lukáš Borl admittedly confessed to spraying the walls of prison lettering “desire for freedom the repression will not stop” and “death to the state”.
He also admitted that he was identifying by amended identity documents. The damage he caused to the prison, he paid. The Court in these two points acknowledged Borl guilty, but dropped his punishment.
According to the Head of Senate, Dagmar Šebková the crimes were not serious and also happened a long time ago.
The prosecutor Václav Richter demanded for all without distinction imprisonment for the duration of three years, which would be conditionally postponed to the probationary period of three years.
However, the court liberated the defendants. The judgment was not declared competent, the prosecutor appealed.
