Gott to have funeral with state honours - Babis

The last farewell with late Czech pop star Karel Gott will have the form of a funeral with state honours, not of a usual state funeral, Prime Minister Andrej Babis told journalists today. Babis said he wanted to tell the public where and when Gott will be buried. Culture Minister Lubomir Zaoralek said the government was waiting for the position of Gott's family. The most famous Czech pop singer Gott died from acute leukemia at 80 on Tuesday night.
