Czech Interior Minister refuses to comment on Russian space official espionage case

Prague, Jul 8 (Sputnik) Czech Interior Minister and First Deputy Prime Minister Jan Hamacek on Wednesday declined to comment on the case of Ivan Safronov, an adviser to the head of Russia's space agency Roscosmos, who is accused, according to his lawyer, of passing classified information to the Czech security services.
"No comment," Hamacek told reporters, as quoted by Czech news portal Denik N.
Safronov was detained on Tuesday on the suspicion that he had been passing state defense secrets to a NATO country. A Moscow court has ordered two months in custody for the ex-defense journalist and former employee of the Kommersant publishing house. Safronov has denied the high treason charges against them.
