Jaroslaw Szymczyk says he accidentally set off a grenade launcher given to him as a gift by Ukraine.
Poland's highest ranking police officer has confirmed to local media that he accidentally set off a grenade launcher given to him as a gift by Ukraine.
The BBC has requested confirmation of the facts in the General's interview from Polish police but has yet to receive a response. The report claims the Ukrainians said both launchers had already been used and did not contain explosives, which meant they could be taken across the border back to Poland. One of them is understood to have been turned into a loudspeaker for playing music.
Tomasz Siemoniak, a former defence minister and current deputy leader of the main opposition party, Civic Platform, wrote on Twitter that the incident is "indefensible".
