Case adjourned of actors in “Candid Camera” recording during which motorist has heart attack

A Prague district court has adjourned until October a case involving two well-known actors who played traffic police in a Candid Camera-style recording during which a motorist had a heart attack. Petr Čtvrtníček was in court on Tuesday morning, while Jan Potměšil and other defendants involved in the production of the Czech Television programme did not attend. The court asked to see the show’s screenplay, which was approved by management at the public service broadcaster. It also wants to interview the heart attack victim, who has not turned up for the two hearings to date.
