The recovery of Premier Robert Fico (Smer-SD) following the assassination attempt on him is progressing in line with expectations, and the patient's condition is satisfactory, the Government Office informed TASR on Wednesday. The Premier is being treated at F.D. Roosevelt Hospital in Banska Bystrica.
Fico suffered multiple gunshot wounds following the government's away-from-home session in town of Handlova (Trencin region) on May 15. The gunman, a 71-year-old man, was remanded in custody by the Specialized Criminal Court.
