iDnes: Boy beaten in Břeclav incident may have been selling marijuana

An adolescent boy who was brutally beaten by three men, allegedly Roma, in Břeclav in April was selling marijuana, which might be the reason for the attack, according to the news website iDnes.cz. The site says that the boy has changed his testimony in this respect, originally saying that the three men had asked him for a cigarette. As he did not have any, they beat him up so brutally that he lost his kidney. Citing a source informed about the investigation, iDnes writes that boy was selling marijuana and his customers were not satisfied with the product and attacked him. Anti-Romany rallies, organised in part by the ultra-right extremist Workers' Party of Social Justice, have been held in the town because of the crime.
