Assassination attempt on leader critical of covid shots

Investigators looking at possibilities other than 'lone wolf' gunman theory

QUESTIONS are being asked around the assassination attempt on Slovakia's Prime Minister, who had vowed to carry out a probe into covid vaccines and excess deaths.

Initial reports suggested a 'lone wolf' was responsible for the multiple shooting of Robert Fico, 59, in what is thought to be the first attempted killing of a European political leader for more than 20 years.

However, Sky News reported later that officials in Slovakia were investigating whether the attacker who shot Fico was not acting alone.

The incident has echoes of the sudden deaths of two political leaders in Africa who were dismissive of World Health Organisation covid protocols.
