Importantly, Krak\u00f3w Mayor \u0141ukasz Giba\u0142a has also\u00a0challenged\u00a0the claims of Interior Minister Kierwi\u0144ski, saying he had no idea where evidence he was relying on to make his claims about a far-right connection. He said he rejected attempts to tie the massacre to a political ideology and fuel polarization in society.<\/p>\n
Two days after a gunman armed with an assault rifle opened fire in Krak\u00f3w\u2019s historic Main Square, killing six people and wounding more than a dozen others, Polish outlets are now casting doubt on the Interior Ministry\u2019s initial claim that the attacker came from the far-right political spectrum. In fact, he may have belonged to the ultra-left.<\/p>\n
The 24-year-old Polish national, identified in local media as Micha\u0142 Oksi\u0144ski, from Ostrowiec \u015awi\u0119tokrzyski, drove into the square at 3 p.m. on Nov. 7, and fired an AR-15-style assault rifle at random victims. Police shot and wounded him during a subsequent confrontation and he later died in hospital. Later, the bodies of his parents and sister were found by police in the family home. Authorities have treated the attack as a terrorist incident.<\/p>\n
On Saturday, Interior Minister Marcin Kierwi\u0144ski stated to reporters that the suspect held \u201cvery, very radical\u201d views and was \u201cfascinated by far-right ideologies.\u201d He also described Micha\u0142 Oksi\u0144ski as an ultranationalist. Those remarks were widely repeated by international outlets.Despite these claims, numerous Polish outlets, including mainstream ones, are reporting evidence that sharply contests this initial assessment.<\/p>\n
