WARSAW: A Russian artist known for his satirising President Vladimir Putin has been shot dead in eastern Poland, officials said on Tuesday.

“An investigation is being conducted… into the murder of a 44-year-old citizen of the Russian Federation… known in the media as Semyon Skrepetsky,” a spokesman for the prosecutor’s office in Lublin, Marcin Kozak, told journalists.

Two Belarusian nationals have been arrested in connection with the killing, he added.

They were detained in the vicinity of the Belarusian consulate in Biala Podlaska in eastern Poland, where the killing took place.
