According to fakt.pl, President Karol Nawrocki plans to visit a police officer in hospital who was wounded in Saturday's attack in Kraków. The meeting will take place during the president's visit to the capital of Małopolska, where he will participate in ceremonies commemorating the victims of the tragedy.
Bartosz Grodecki, head of the National Security Bureau, announced that the president will meet with only one officer. The second police officer remains in isolation on medical orders. "He will only be able to visit one of the officers. One of them, in view of medical recommendations, must still remain in isolation," Grodecki explained on RMF FM.

The president will take part in the March of Silence scheduled for 20:00. Prime Minister Donald Tusk will also appear at Monday's ceremony honouring the victims. Mourning in Kraków continues until 11 November inclusive, and national mourning across the country began on Sunday and will continue on Monday.

On 7 November, 24-year-old Michał O. drove a car onto the Main Market Square and opened fire with an automatic weapon at random people. Six people were killed in the attack and 16 were wounded. The attacker died in hospital on Monday morning. A police officer who took direct part in the apprehension remains in serious condition — doctors have brought him out of a coma, but his condition has not changed since Sunday. Małopolska Voivode Krzysztof Jan Klęczar confirmed that 14 of the 15 hospitalised people are in stable condition.
