Czech Republic: immunity for Babiš and Okamura?

This is bad news for the justice system, Hospodářské noviny fears:

“The purpose of immunity has always been to ensure that MPs are not prosecuted for their political views. … However, it was never intended to protect politicians from prosecution for ordinary crimes such as violence, fraud or racially motivated acts. Babiš and Okamura are facing charges precisely for such acts: Babiš for subsidy fraud and Okamura for incitement to hatred. … The fact that powerful politicians are not exempt from prosecution is not a failure of the rule of law that needs to be corrected by a parliamentary vote. It is proof that the justice system is working. And Babiš and Okamura’s efforts to obtain immunity are nothing more than an attempt to suppress the justice system.”
