Czech Police find no evidence of local victims in Epstein probe

Czech police have concluded an investigation into potential links between the late American financier Jeffrey Epstein and citizens of the Czech Republic. Following a review conducted in cooperation with United States authorities, officials stated they found no evidence of criminally relevant connections regarding potential victims in the Czech Republic.

The inquiry was prompted by the release of millions of pages of documents from the Epstein case in January, which included correspondence involving Czech women and indications that Epstein had visited the country on multiple occasions. These reports led to parliamentary inquiries by former Foreign Minister Jan Lipavský regarding the government's response to these potential local links.

While the investigation found no grounds for criminal proceedings, police noted that the findings do not necessarily address every mention of Czech individuals or the country within the massive cache of released files, which includes millions of pages, videos, and photographs.
