Juraj Cintula, a 71-year-old man who reportedly shot Robert Fico, Prime Minister of Slovakia, may be connected with Slovenskí Branci, a pro-Russian militarised group.

Source: European Pravda, citing investigative journalist Szabolcs Panyi.

Details: Panyi tweeted two screenshots of Facebook posts by Slovenskí Branci which show the same man who made the attempt on Fico’s life.

Looks like Slovak PM Robert Fico's reported assailant, writer Juraj Cintula, was associated with pro-Russian paramilitary group Slovenskí Branci (SB).

Slovenskí Branci is an unregistered paramilitary group that has been active in Slovakia since 2012.

On 15 May, Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico was shot after a government meeting and taken to hospital.

Eyewitnesses say the prime minister approached some people who had greeted him, and that is when several shots were fired. »

Sales of Deep Silver and Volition’s Saints Row reboot have now exceeded 1.7 million copies, which is less than half of the number of copies sold by Saints Row 3.

While 1.7 million copies is no small figure, sales of the Saints Row Reboot do not fare well in comparison to other titles in the series.

However, the franchise’s growth saw a dramatic decline with the release of the 2022 reboot, which likely sold less than the original Saints Row, Saints Row 2, and Saints Row 3. »
