Warsaw police detained two persons who might have been involved in Sunday's attack on Russian diplomats' children, but they were released Tuesday afternoon when it turned out they had convincing alibis, Mariusz Sokolowski of Warsaw's police said Tuesday. He added the two had no connection to the incident. On Monday the police released nine suspects detained earlier in the day as the attacked youngsters failed to recognise them. Three 15-17 years old Russians and one Kazakh were assailed Sunday night in the Mokotow district of Warsaw by a group of 15 Poles. They were beaten up and robbed of their cell phones and money. The Russian foreign ministry "expects an official apology from Poland," Russian foreign ministry representatives Boris Malakhov said Monday. According to him the attack on the children was not accidental and is a proof of existing anti-Russian attitudes in Poland, which can also be noticed in statements by some Polish politicians. | Source: Polish Embassy | Aug.04.2002 |
