Protection of the Czech President Vaclav Klaus on Friday failed to protect him from assassination simulation, when 26-year-old Czech Pavel Ondroush calmly approached him, placed to the side of the head of state a plastic gun and repeatedly pulled the trigger, imitated shots. The incident occurred in the Czech town of Chrastava / Liberec region / where Vaclav Klaus took part in the opening of the new bridge.

The moment of "attempt" was filmed by a TV camera Czech channel "Prima". Record clearly shows himself, Vaclav Klaus, is surrounded by townspeople Ondrousha approaching him, dressed in a camouflage jacket, and his outstretched arm with the gun barrel which he presses the right to the right side of the President. That the camera instantly recorded, could not see and to prevent security.

More: by repeatedly pressing the trigger, Ondroush lost in the crowd of townspeople and the first who caught up with him, were ... journalists, he managed to make a brief statement. Only then were able to apprehend him. But again, this was not the presidential guards, and local law enforcement officers. Opinion of all security experts have viewed filmed channel operator "Prima" footage was clear - if Ondroush really wanted to kill the president and in his hand was not a gun that shoots plastic balls and a real weapon, he would have easily realized his intention.

Sam 71, Vaclav Klaus reacted to the incident quiet. Immediately afterwards, he said that, unfortunately, there are around "too many mentally unstable people," and only later explained that "it all happened so fast, that at the time just could not be intimidated."

Delivered to a military hospital in Prague, Vaclav Klaus was examined by doctors who found it easy to damage the elbow resembling simple abrasion. Otherwise, the president was completely healthy.

Despite the fact that the "shooting" in Chrastava ended happily for the head of state, is predicting that the presidential security service offers the most unpleasant consequences, including retirement and reorganization.

Security experts said that imitation assassination was carried out in the "Czech traditions" when encroach not want to kill or hurt the one he has chosen his target, but it is intended to express their displeasure or, if possible, even to talk "like a man ". Since 1992, in the Czech Republic were thus carried out 16 attacks on politicians, including former Prime Minister Mirek Topolanek, who attacked placed under eye bruise. As a result of these actions, no politician was seriously hurt.
