The Czech police have launched a criminal investigation against former Communist interior minister Frantisek Kincl, 81, on suspicion of abuse of power over the shooting at Czechoslovakia's borders that killed or wounded people, the daily Ekonomicky denik and news portal SeznamZpravy reported on Monday. The Office for the Documentation and Investigation of the Crimes of Communism (UDV) accused Kincl, in office 1988-89, of the crime.
