The Prosecutor's Office of the Czech Republic forwarded to court the case targeting Nela Liskova, who called for the “de-Ukrainization and de-Nazification” of Czechia on social media.

That’s according to the police spokesman Jan Danek, who spoke with Czech Television, Ukrinform reports.

According to law enforcement, Liskova accompanied her post with a photo of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

"Law enforcement officers completed the pre-trial proceedings and handed over the case together with the report on its results to the District Prosecutor's Office of the Prague 4 district. The prosecutor filed a motion in the District Court to prosecute the suspect for inciting hatred against a group of people or restricting their rights and freedoms," Danek said.

The police started looking into Liskova's post in X in June.

In the past, the activist referred to herself as an "honorary consul of the DPR" and headed the association "Representative Center of the DPR". The organization was dissolved by a court ruling in 2017 due to its illegal activities.
