According to Fišer, the Prosecution Council determined that he acted in the best interest of the Prosecutor General's Office. “The best candidate was nominated, and the rights of the other candidates were not violated in the process. The Prosecution Council determined that the Prosecutor General's Office made great strides under this leadership,” Fišer said, adding that calls for him to step down were politically motivated, which is why he refused to resign. He said those calls only strengthened his resolve to “keep up the good work”.

The opposition SDS and NSi are meanwhile pushing for legislative changes, as they want the government to be able to dismiss the State Prosecutor General. The coalition DeSUS and SD have spoken out against these changes.
