Supreme Administrative Court reviewing proposal to dissolve the Workers’ Party

Today the Supreme Administrative Court will start its review of a proposal to dissolve the neo-Nazi Workers’ Party. The Czech Government first proposed dissolving the party this past spring, but the court ruled against that first motion, saying the proposal had been poorly prepared and did not present sufficient evidence.

The Czech Government is now being represented in this dispute by attorney Tomáš Sokol. In an interview for the “20 Minutes” program on the Radiožurnál radio station yesterday, Sokol said the work was very interesting for him: “Naturally this is somewhat of an exceptional case. Some would call it a challenge, but I prefer to think of it as essentially an opportunity for very interesting work.”
