Who threatened Tusk with an assassination attempt? A 66-year-old man was detained and taken to the capital

On Sunday, the police received information about a possible attack on Prime Minister Donald Tusk and Deputy Prime Minister and head of the Ministry of National Defense Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz. A meeting of representatives of services subordinated to the Ministry of Interior and Administration was immediately convened, including the police, the State Protection Service and the Internal Security Agency. In the afternoon, it was reported that a suspicious man had been detained in Lower Silesia.

As RMF FM reporter Krzysztof Zasada learned earlier, a 66-year-old man was transported to the Capital Police Headquarters in Warsaw on Monday. According to the spokesman of the District Prosecutor's Office in Warsaw, examinations and analyzes of secured electronic data carriers and other items are ongoing. The suspect's hearing at the prosecutor's office is scheduled for Tuesday after 12:00 at the earliest.

As an RMF FM reporter found out, the detainee is a staunch opponent of the current government. The services take his plans very seriously and - as they say - the matter is very evolving.

The head of the Ministry of Interior and Administration, Marcin Kierwiński, said that information about the planned attack was provided by an informant who indicated the name of the person who could have committed this act. According to the minister, the detained man had links with radical groups and maintained contacts with various people via the Internet.

Prime Minister Donald Tusk and Deputy Prime Minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz thanked the services for quick and decisive actions after receiving a signal about a possible attack.
