A man has been charged with attempted murder, over an apparent attempt to assassinate Slovakian Prime Minister Robert Fico.
Fico remains in a serious but stable condition in hospital after being shot several times during a walkabout.
UK Correspondent Gavin Grey told Heather du Plessis Allan there’s been reports that the suspect is a 71-year-old, but other than that not much is known.
Grey said “Others are saying his motive was the Slovak government’s stance on the media – they are cracking down on Newspapers.”
