The author who shot Slovakian Prime Minister Robert Fico: who’s he and what pushed him to this step? | Tradition

Earlier, Slovak media reported that he had labored as a safety guard and was allegedly linked to the pro-Russian group Slovenskí Branci.

15min gives info collected by Marta Eva Běťáková, a Baltic-Czech translator from Latvian and Lithuanian to Slovak.

J. Cintula was born on March 1, 1953. He lived within the city of Levice in southern Slovakia.

Inspecting Mr. Cintula’s setting, one can come to the conclusion that he strongly felt the polarization of Slovak society, the way in which society is split by the help of various political events.

He used to work as a safety guard in a shopping mall, he was aggressively attacked by a buyer, and after this assault he needed to bear long-term therapy.

In 2016, he began making a political celebration “In opposition to Violence” in Levice. The purpose was to gather 10 thousand. signatures and struggle in opposition to all types of violence, from conflict to home violence. Signatures couldn’t be collected. “There isn’t a Slavic brotherhood. There’s solely the aggressor and the attacked”, – J. Cintula talked about the challenge for the final time in his social networks.

Regardless of the “In opposition to coercion” slogan, Mr. Cintula was in favor of radical options.

Within the guide “Efata”, which is filled with every kind of philosophical reflections, he wrote in regards to the assassin who killed his neighbors: “Quite the opposite, he was a person who may now not bear the burden of anger that he had carried with him all his life… They declared him insane, however he was not insane, he simply could not carry his burden anymore.” It goes on to say that it’s this burden that may lead one to take to the streets of cities and trigger nice evil.

The author lived in a dormitory, his spouse was a gymnasium trainer and, in line with the caretaker of the home, their marriage was harmonious, they used to stroll holding fingers.

Since 2015 J. Cintula is a member of the Writers’ Union of Slovakia. This union isn’t an all-inclusive neighborhood of writers in Slovakia, however principally unites these writers who care about public life and who’re Catholic and conservative, not radical conservative.

The Union publishes the “Literature weekly”, wherein a few of the texts are about Christianity and politics. One of many revealed texts is named “Struggle isn’t Peace”. The weekly appears to share the same view of the conflict in Ukraine as Robert Fico, who emphasizes the necessity to negotiate with Russia. The union stated on its web site that it was shocked by such a brutal crime, that it had severed all ties with the alleged perpetrator and believed that the liberal media contributed to his crime.

All his books had been revealed by an area publishing home in Levice. J. Cintula was not a really well-known author. One other paradox is hidden in his poetry: a few of his neighbors indicated that he was “somewhat bizarre”, and a few – that he was a really candy, kind-hearted particular person, at all times prepared to assist. Nonetheless, this isn’t mirrored in poetry. Slovak media reviews that, judging by his poems, he thought of himself a insurgent.
