The resignation of MP Dominik Feri, one of the most prominent figures in the TOP 09 party, following accusations of sexual assault and improper conduct by several women, has sparked a heated debate in the Czech Republic about sexual harassment and the country’s attitude to sexual violence.
Dominik Feri was elected to the Chamber of Deputies in 2017 at the age of 21, becoming the Czech Republic’s youngest and also the first ever black Member of Parliament.
He was supposed to run in the autumn election for the Together grouping of Civic Democrats, Christian Democrats, and TOP 09 as one of their top candidates in Prague.
