The senior Foreign Ministry official reportedly plunged from the third floor while attending a private gathering in Slovenia

A senior Polish Foreign Ministry official has been critically injured after falling from a third-floor window at a building adjoining the country’s diplomatic mission in Slovenia, local media have reported.

The incident occurred at around 3am on September 13 but only came to light several days later. The man was identified by Polish outlets as the head of the Foreign Ministry’s Diplomatic Security Bureau, which oversees the security of ministry facilities in Poland and the country’s diplomatic missions abroad. He has remained in critical condition in a Slovenian hospital since the fall.

According to Polish news portal Zero.pl, the official was attending a private party with several other people when he fell. The other participants were also reportedly off duty.

“He was on leave. It was his private time. He was in an apartment adjacent to the diplomatic mission. That is where the accident occurred,” ministry spokesman Maciej Wewior told Niezalezna.pl.
