Czech Post to deliver thousands of letters found dumped

Czech Post says it will attempt to deliver some 25,000 letters found dumped in Břeclav, south Moravia to their addressees, Lidové noviny reported. The company described the dumping of around 40,000 letters and parcels in the town, which was discovered earlier this year, as the greatest scandal in its history. The mail to be delivered will be accompanied by a letter of apology from Czech Post and a gift of stamps worth CZK 100. Over 10,000 of the letters found in Břeclav have been destroyed because they were in such a bad state. Police are still investigating the theft of the mail.
