Semyon Skrepetsky, a 44‑year‑old Russian critic of Vladimir Putin known for satirical artworks, was shot dead with five bullets fired, including one to the head. Two Belarusian nationals have been detained in connection with the murder, though no formal charges have yet been brought.
According to current information, the 44-year-old was approached by an unidentified man who fired two shots at him with a handgun. After the victim fell to the ground, the perpetrator approached, fired three more shots, and then quickly fled the scene.
An investigation is being conducted... into the murder of a 44-year-old citizen of the Russian Federation... known in the media as Semyon Skrepetsky.
Poland cannot become a space for such actions.
If the political nature of this crime is confirmed, we will be faced with a new manifestation of the escalation of actions carried out by Russia beyond its borders.
The murder of an artist is a terrible event. I hope there will be an investigation, although I'm almost certain it was one Chechen 'Don'.
