Combating Drug Trafficking Program

Two U.S. specialists on drug trafficking participated at a few days joint program of Czech Judicial Academy and the U.S. Embassy in Prague. This specialized workshop, that attended 80 prosecutors and judges, took place in Klatovy second week in October 2005 and focused on questions of gathering evidence in drug cases as well as questions of admissibility of certain evidence in the court. Issues such as wiretapping, crown witness, assets forfeiture and other legal tools to combat trafficking in drugs were deeply discussed.
