Skrepetski, who lived in Poland near the Belarus border, was shot dead earlier this week. The Polish prime minister stated that the suspect used a Georgian passport and authorities are trying to determine his identity. Skrepetski was known for provocative performances mocking Putin and Lukashenko, including an incident where he pulled down the Russian flag at the Russian embassy in Berlin
