Woman attacked in Varnsdorf for having same surname as fraudster Kohout

A 73-year-old woman in the restive town of Varnsdorf was violently attacked on Friday, apparently because she bore the same last name as one of the organisers of recent anti-Roma demonstrations, Lukáš Kohout. She was knocked down by two masked men who injured her face and told her “that was for your son”. Police however said that there was no apparent racial aspect to the attack, and added that the woman is of no relation to Kohout. Lukaš Kohout is a notorious fraudster, well-known for having passed himself off as a government official on numerous occasions and for provoking police and demonstrators at protests.
