A Polish grandmother popularly known as 'Babcia Kasia' (Grandma Kasia) has become a symbol of government opposition owing to her lengthy rap sheet of charges chalked up at anti-government protests.
Warsaw court officials told PAP on Thursday that Katarzyna Augustynek has already faced five charges and six indictments this year alone.
The charges include resisting police restraint and assaulting police officers, one of whom she was alleged to have attacked with a flagpole. She is also charged with using abusive language towards law enforcement officers.
