A man has come forward to the police claiming to have started the
largescale fire that wreaked havoc in one of Czechia’s most famous
national parks known as Bohemian Switzerland last year, CNN Prima News
reported on Friday. The forest fire was the largest the Czech Republic
has ever seen.
According to the TV station, the man confessed to having started
several smaller fires in the national park that occurred during the
Easter period. However, during the interrogation, he eventually
confessed to also starting a fire at the site called Malinový důl, from
which the flames subsequently spread into much of the rest of the park.
Police have not yet confirmed the man’s confession.
