This step occurred after Jiřikovský was charged with the legalization of income from crime.
On Friday, the Czech police seized the Bitcoins of the Ministry of Justice, given to him by Tomáš Jiřikovský, previously convicted of the operation of the Internet market with drugs and weapons. The resort said this on the X social network, informs TASR newsletter in Prague.
“We respect this act. It confirms the conclusions of previously published legal opinions. The ministry consults the following steps with lawyers and buyers,” the ministry wrote.
Prepare an updated timeline
It added that it is currently consulting whether, due to the current development in the case, it is possible to publish an updated time axis of the case, which planned to do next week.
On Thursday night, the police also intervened with Jiřikovský, who was detained under dramatic circumstances and subsequently accused the crime of legalization of revenues from crime and illicit production and other treatment of narcotic and psychotropic substances and poisons.
The attitude of the former Minister of Justice
The shift in the case on the X Network was also commented on by former head of the resort Pavel Blažek, who had to end up in office. According to him, if the donor is convicted of criminal activity committed in connection with Bitcoins, it shall be confirmed that the donation contract he has concluded for the ministry was the only effective way to reach the criminal proceedings almost ten years after the offense and also to be entered into the criminal return.
This was responded by the current Minister and Blažka’s companion from ODS Eva Decroix a challenge to save her colleagues from the view that everything is fine. “It is all wrong from the beginning, and this wisdom is now valid as a dead chills!” she stressed.
