Czechs write to Usti in support of wall erection

04-06-1999

Radio Prague, June 4th - The Usti nad Labem city hall has received dozens of letters from all over the Czech Republic in support of the planned erection of a wall in Maticni street.

The letters call on the Usti local authorities not to back down in their dispute with the government over the wall which is to enclose several apartment blocks for rent-defaulters, inhabited mostly by Romanies, to protect the rest of the street against noise pollution and discarded waste.
