Czechs bid farewell to Havel
Czechs are bidding an emotional farewell to Vaclav Havel, the dissident playwright who led their peaceful revolution that brought to an end decades of Communist rule.
Havel’s wife Dagmar, family members, friends and leaders from dozens of countries are gathering today at the gothic St Vitus Cathedral, the biggest and most important church in the country, to pay their last respects to the former president.
