Drug-dealing Czech kick boxer Karel Sroubek has again been denied parole
21 January 2020
The Parole Board has just revealed its decision after a hearing today.
In 2015 Sroubek was jailed for five years and nine months for smuggling an Ecstasy precursor drug hidden among legitimate goods.
He is due to finish his sentence in early 2022 and will come back before the board in November.
Sroubek came to New Zealand in 2003 on a false passport in the name of Jan Antolik - and was found guilty in a 2011 jury trial of using a false passport and lying to immigration officials - but discharged without conviction by the judge.
