State prosecutor accuses Audit Office president of mismanagement

The state prosecutor’s office for Prague 7 has filed a lawsuit against the president of the Supreme Audit Office, František Dohnal. The prosecutor accuses Mr Dohnal of improper management, saying he availed himself of upscale residences for state money. Mr Dohnal says that his living expenses were within those allotted by the office, and his attorney has said that the case is politically motivated. If found guilty he would be removed from his position, a penalty he could also receive from the president at the behest of the Parliament.
