Attempted poisoning of Polish conservative President Nawrocki

The Slovenian news outlet Nova24TV reports on an investigation by Poland's local prosecutor's office into whether Polish conservative presidential candidate Karol Nawrocki was the victim of a poisoning attempt during his 2025 presidential campaign. The inquiry was triggered by excerpts from a book interview titled 'Od kod je prišel Karol Nawrocki?' co-authored by historian Andrzej Nowak. In these excerpts, Nawrocki describes a dramatic collapse after a campaign rally in Ząbkowice, Šlesien, where he reportedly lost consciousness, experienced violent convulsions, and vomited heavily. His security team described the incident as resembling a horror movie scene, with complete loss of bodily control. Although Nawrocki does not explicitly state he was poisoned in the excerpts, he emphasizes the severity of the event and suggests it cannot be dismissed as a random health issue. His security team had previously warned him about the risks of direct contact with voters, including kissing them, as it could create opportunities for poisoning. Despite these warnings, Nawrocki continued his campaign, believing physical interaction with people was essential. Nowak, the book's co-author, has hinted
