The Danish Prime Minister, Mette Frederiksen, thanked, through a message published on the social network Instagram, the expressions of support received after the attack suffered last Friday in the center of Copenhagen by a 39-year-old Polish citizen. An action that the Police describes as “isolated and spontaneous.”

“Thank you for the many, many, many messages of support and encouragement. It is incredibly moving,” wrote the prime minister, who said she felt “sad and shocked“for what happened, while reassuring the population by telling them that he is fine.”For once, I need peace and quiet. Both for the body and for the soul. “I need to be with my family and I need to be myself for a while,” she added. She has also been grateful for “the many greetings, flowers and loving thoughts” she has received from the population. Frederiksen has accompanied her message with an image of a huge red heart.

The court of Frederiksberg (Denmark) has decreed this Saturday preventive prison, until June 20, for the prime minister’s attacker for assault against a public official. The individual, who he denied the charges during the hearingIt was clearly influenced by alcohol and other drugs when he was arrested, a minute after punching Frederiksen in the arm with his fist and pushing her, according to the police report. A doctor also determined a mental imbalance in the accused.

In his statement before the judge, the individual, who needed an interpreter, showed his sympathy for Frederiksen and assured that she was a “very good” prime minister.
