Danish PM suffers whiplash after assault in Copenhagen
Attack on Mette Frederiksen unlikely to be ‘politically motivated’, authorities say, as 39-year-old man remanded
An attack on the Danish prime minister, Mette Frederiksen, which left her “shaken” and with a whiplash injury, was probably not “politically motivated”, Danish authorities have said.
A 39-year-old Polish man, who was apprehended after allegedly hitting the prime minister on Friday evening, was remanded in custody until 20 June after appearing before a Copenhagen court, the prosecutor Taruh Sekeroglu told reporters.
