This is because at first, you need to find a secret room in the watchmaker, Nomad Stanek, apartment, and then bolt it in a right moment, to avoid the ambush prepared by the gangsters. Nevertheless, this mission doesn't require any major preparations, and can be completed straight away.

Meeting with Smiley Fletcher
The first part of this task is very easy. Return to TF29 headquarters located in northern Prague, and meet with Smiley Fletcher in the forensic laboratory, to hear his findings based on the evidence gathered earlier from the site of the terrorist attack. Fletcher will point to a local watchmaker Stanek as the next lead. You'll receive 500 experience points.
Searching Stanek's apartment
Begin with leaving TF29. The moment you leave the building, you'll be a witness to an explosion nearby. Investigating the blast site is not mandatory, but if you decide to do so (go in the direction of smoke visible nearby), you'll determine that the blast took place in the watchmaker shop located near LIMB clinic.
Stanek's apartment is in Libuse apartments located in eastern Prague (M13 map). You have to reach apartment 96 located on the level three of the building. The door leading to the apartment are closed, and have level four security. If you don't have the necessary hacking skill, use a Multitool. You'll receive 500 experience points for reaching the apartment.
Ignore the main room in Stanek's apartment, and move to the neighboring room (M13,1). You have to take look at the antique clock, shown on the screenshot. Interacting with it unlocks access to a secret room in the watchmaker apartment.
The most important item in the secret room is Stanek's computer, which only has level one security. Hack it and read all emails. You'll receive 1950 experience points.
Escaping the Dvali deathtrap
Once you finish interacting with the computer, you'll receive a message that informs you that you have been caught in Dvali gang ambush. Gas begins to emit in the neighboring room, and you shouldn't return there even if you have Implanted Rebreather, as the door have been closed. Instead, look under the desk, and search for the ventilation shaft shown on the screenshot. Enter it and start to crawl through narrow tunnels. The vent will lead you to a different room, and you'll be able to leave the apartment. You'll receive 3150 experience points.
Stanek confrontation
The last part of this quest involves interrogating the captured watchmaker. You need to reach Irish Stool pub, located in the Red Light District (M3,3). Once you enter the building, go to the cellar where a cut-scene will start. As a reward for this quest, you'll receive 1950 experience points.
