"We can say that it was a lynching that they directed and organized for themselves," she said .

Wroclaw police spokesman Commissioner Wojciech Jablonski confirmed that the group of seven consisted exclusively of Ukrainian citizens. Law enforcement officers found that they all knew each other "at their place of work, residence or study.".

Some of the suspects in the attack are minors.

"Three of the suspects have been charged with, among other things, assault, bodily harm and insult. The others, as they are under 17 years old, will be brought before a family court," Freis said .
