Prague Mayor under police protection; Russian authorities deny assassination plot

The Russian authorities have denounced a Czech newspaper report that a Russian agent reached Czech Republic to assassin the mayor of Prague.

The mayor has not confirmed whether he has faced an assassination attempt or not, though he has admitted that he is under the protection of police.

As per a latest report, the protection offered to the mayor has been beefed up after a report about the assassination plan was published.

The report published by the Czech newspaper has put the relation between Czech Republic and Russia in a disturbed state.

Russia has rejected the news report in strong words, and it has even called the news report as a fake news report.

The relation between Russia and Czech Republic is at present not in a very good state. The report has widened the rift between these two countries.
