Mayor of Usti nad Labem has asked parliament to make a decision on wall
30-06-1999
Radio Prague, June 30th - The Mayor of Usti nad Labem has cancelled the measure to build a
controversial wall that would separate a predominantly Roma housing estate
from the Czech community, and asked parliament to make a decision on the
matter.
The council in Usti nad Labem claims that the wall should be built
to protect paying residents from the noise made by non-paying residents.
Czech and foreign opponents of the wall, including the government, say that
wall would be a breach of human rights. The Czech government recommended in
May that the wall should not be built.
