Krzysztof B., a resident of the Łosice district in eastern Poland, was detained earlier this week in connection with the alleged arson attack outside Civic Platform’s headquarters on Wiejska Street in central Warsaw.
The incident occurred on Friday, when witnesses reported that the suspect threw a Molotov cocktail at the office entrance but was pushed away by a bystander, causing the device to break before igniting. No one was injured.
Prime Minister Tusk commented on the arrest in a post on the social media platform X, saying that Krzysztof B. had been charged in June over death threats directed at him.
Tusk linked the alleged attack to recent rhetoric at a public rally, remarking that calls to “not fear the courts” and to use incendiary devices had preceded the incident.
Warsaw police confirmed that the suspect is under investigation for attempted arson and criminal threats, and that the case remains ongoing.
