SLOVAKIA'S interior minister said yesterday that a "lone wolf" has been charged in the shooting that seriously wounded Prime Minister Robert Fico.
Fico shooting: Man charged

The attempted assassination has shocked the European nation, with leaders blaming the attack in part on extreme political polarisation that has divided the country.

President-elect Peter Pellegrini visited Mr Fico in hospital yesterday and spoke with him, but said that his condition "remains very serious".

The populist leader, 59, was hit multiple times in the attempt on his life on Wednesday.

At a news conference yesterday following a meeting of Slovakia's Security Council, government ministers gave more details about the man, while still not naming him.

Interior minister Matus Sutaj Estok said that the man cited his dissatisfaction with several of Mr Fico's policies as motivation for the attack.
