Prague Anti-IMF and WB Legal Support Summary from OPH
4th October 2000
===========================================
Total persons reported to OPH either 'missing',
'detained' or 'freed': 495
Though this summary represents what we understand to be the current situation, it is likely to be very inaccurate as it is suspected many people have been found or freed and not made contact with us since. In the few cases where definite confirmation exists about a person's status it is indicated separately. Some of the information may seem confusing, this is because of the difficulty of obtaining factual information from the police and jails, etc. Those people still detained are either in Balková special facility for foreigners near Pilzen; Pankrác jail in Prague; or Sokolov jail in West Bohemia
