Polish prosecutor: no confirmed ideological link in Kraków attack case
The spokesperson for the Polish National Prosecutor's Office, Przemyslaw Nowak, stated on Monday that there are no elements that would permit association "categorically and responsibly" of the perpetrator of the armed attack in Kraków with any ideology. The statement comes after the Interior Minister had suggested that the attacker may have been inspired by far-right extremism.
"We do not have any elements that would allow us to say categorically and responsibly that he was inspired by any ideology or another," Nowak said at a press conference, according to ProTV News.
A terrorism investigation was opened following the attack that took place on Saturday evening in the main square in Kraków. At least six people were killed and approximately 12 were injured, according to Polish police.
The attacker is a Polish citizen and acted alone, police communicated to AFP, cited by Agerpres.
