Karlos Vémola is training and fighting under the weight of a criminal case that is still open. The Czech fighter, 41, says he expects it to end in his favor, but he accepts it may not end soon.

Speaking to Expres, as reported by MMA Fanatik Slovakia, Vémola said the hardest part is accepting that the process could take years. He said he knows people whose cases dragged on for many years, and that a person has to prepare for that and try to live normally.

He described the restrictions he lives under as few: he cannot travel or go on holiday, and he must follow certain conditions. His way of coping, he said, is to train and work hard and to live as if the case did not exist.

Vémola said he still trusts the legal and court system. "I believe in justice and, surprisingly, I still believe in the legal and court system," he said (translated). He called the case a mistake that must be corrected, and said he believes police now understand that nothing links him to it.

MMA Fanatik reports that his bail was more than 600,000 euros. Vémola said he expects it to be returned when the case ends.

He competes at light heavyweight for Oktagon MMA. No court date or decision in the case has been reported, so the next step depends on how the investigation develops.
