A Czech state prosecutor has appealed a May ruling that acquitted former Member of Parliament Dominik Feri of charges related to the alleged sexual assault of a seventeen-year-old girl. The original verdict, delivered by the Prague 3 District Court, found Feri not guilty. Prosecutor Petra Gřivnová filed the appeal, initiating a review of the case by an appellate court. Judge Marek Bodlák, who presided over the initial trial and delivered the acquittal, confirmed the appeal to iRozhlas.cz. This means Feri will now face a new trial as the higher court re-examines the evidence and legal arguments presented. The outcome of the appeal could lead to a reversal of the acquittal and a potential conviction.
