Igor Matovič alleges that police officers in plainclothes were present at his event in Bytča due to the recently enacted “lex atentát” law. The incident reportedly involved the grounding of a senior citizen, sparking criticism of Matovič’s meetings. Matovič claims his security team from the Hnutie (Movement) did not intervene, but rather the state police were responsible for the action. Details of the grounding and its context remain unclear, but the situation has ignited debate surrounding the deployment of law enforcement at political gatherings. The presence of police has prompted discussion concerning the scope and application of the "lex atentát" legislation. Video footage of the event has been released. Matovič asserts the police action is connected to the controversial law intended to address potential assassination threats against public officials.
