Josef Mareš joined the Prague assassination, which he later headed, in the 1990s. “The work was specific in that I came across cases that I would not normally get to. They would be made by 100% more experienced police officers, and I would just help them. But the time was such that there was no time, “he recalls of his beginnings when he was thrown into the water.
Do-it-yourself police and crime mantas
As a beginning investigator, he dealt with the murder of Ludvika Jonáková, the wife of businessman Jonák. He spent eighteen years in prison for ordering the killers. Jonák’s case appears in the series, as do other significant cases of the time, such as the Eagle Murders. František Mrázek, a businessman described as one of the heads of organized crime at the time, will also arrive at the police station.
Josef Mareš promises that media-washed cases look at the series from a different angle. “It was a war between police and do-it-yourselfers. These cases have been discussed many times in the press, radio and television. We put them together and wrote the story as it happened from the point of view of the police themselves, “he explains.
“Especially, young man, don’t play like me”
Director Peter Bebjak sees the 1990s as “a time when democracy was born and at the same time castrated.” “It was the Wild East,” he has no doubt. Tomáš Kozák is again on the side of the law. However, while there is already an experienced investigator in the 1st Division Cases, his twenty-year-younger version in the 1990s in the homicide department is just beginning.
The role of young Kozák is the first such great television opportunity for Kryštof Bartoš. He consulted his character with Ondřej Vetchý, who plays Kozák in the Cases of the 1st Department. “He replied, ‘Especially, young man, don’t play like me, because you won’t.’ I took only a minimum of it, so that I was not a completely different character, but at the same time so as not to imitate him, “he said.

Viewers of “Cases” also reliably know the unpopular boss Josef Korejs. Miroslav Hanuš will replace Miroslav Hanuš in the prequel. “Josef did not have a position at a young age, so he has to try harder, but of course he can be seen as a careerist and solo carp,” he indicated.
Martin Finger took over the younger operative Václav Plíšek (Bolek Polívka). “The onslaught of so-called freedom has dismantled even the evil in the people in massive numbers,” says early capitalism in Czechoslovakia. “It is very valuable for me to see the ways and difficulties that the police had to go through at the time,” he adds. On the contrary, Lieutenant Tůma, played by Ondřej Sokol, has a new face in the series assassination.
In the fall, viewers should also see the continuation of the 1st Department Cases. Third row will definitely be the last, according to the creators.
