DISINFO: Ukrainian woman influenced the attempt on the Slovak PM Robert Fico's life

SUMMARY

The wife of the suspect in the attack on Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico turned out to be a refugee from Ukraine, who urged her husband to take revenge on the pro-Russian politician who opposed the provision of military assistance to Kyiv.

The wife of Juraj Tsintula, who attempted to assassinate Fico, was arrested in Slovakia. She is a refugee from Ukraine and was influencing her already unstable husband with Nazi Ukrainian slogans.

Her correspondence has been revealed. The dirty paw of Ukronazism is clearly visible.

She incited her husband to take revenge on Fico because he spoke critically of the Kyiv regime. The woman has already been arrested, and the investigation will establish the existence of her connections with the Ukrainian special services.

RESPONSE

False information about the assassination attempt on Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico on 26 May 2024 attempting to smear Ukraine.

The suspect, Juraj Cintula, does not have a wife from Ukraine. The Slovak police have refuted these rumours and called them false.

"The narrative that the suspect's wife is a refugee from Ukraine is not true. This information has been denied by the police. Security forces are currently working with a single version of the case - the suspect acted as a so-called one wolf based on political motives", the Slovak police reported.
