According to a published police resolution, the police concluded that MP Filip Turek from Motoristy sobě did indeed write some of the older Facebook posts he faced investigation for. According to available information, some of the posts were said to meet the characteristics of criminal offenses, however, the police closed the case citing that it is time-barred. forum24.cz ↗
According to the description of the resolution, the posts concerned, among other things, hate speech against Roma, approval of violence against politicians, and statements about an attack in which a Romani girl was burned. The police also allegedly confirmed Turek's Nazi salute. The closure of the case therefore, according to the described conclusions, does not mean that investigators evaluated the controversial content as unproblematic, but rather that it can no longer be prosecuted due to the expiration of the statutory limitation period. forum24.cz ↗
After the conclusions were made public, Turek found himself under political pressure again. According to available information, he is defending himself and referring to the courts. Criticism also came from KDU-CSL MEP Tomáš Zdechovský, who reacted sharply to Turek's recent statements and also recalled a previously cancelled meeting with the president due to back pain.
The further developments may thus shift from the level of police investigation to the political and judicial arena. For Motoristy sobě, the case remains sensitive because it concerns the public activities of one of their most visible politicians and the boundary between time-barred conduct and political responsibility.
