Two people have been detained in Poland on suspicion of attacking Russian opposition activist Leonid Volkov, an ally of the late activist Alexei Navalny, Lithuanian President Gitanas Nauseda announced on Friday.
Volkov was attacked in March outside his home in the Lithuanian capital, Vilnius, where he lives in exile.
The attacker smashed one of his car's windows, sprayed tear gas into his eyes and hit him with a hammer, police said at the time.
The Lithuanian president thanked Poland for its work, though there was no immediately comment from Polish officials.
