Murder of Daniel Tupý

On November 4, 2005, Tupý was with his friends at the Tyršovo embankment of the Danube in Petržalka when a group of neo-Nazis suddenly attacked them from behind.

On the first anniversary of his death, Comenius University edited his poems into a book, which they titled Ticho po anjelovi ("Silence after the angel").

The Slovak interior minister, Robert Kaliňák held a speech, where he claimed that the "perpetrators can not feel safe themselves".

A memorial to the victims of racism and neo-Nazism was also erected, and unveiled at Bratislava's Tyršovo embankment on November 16, at the site of the murder.

The most recent racially motivated attack, which gained huge media attention and eventually affected Slovak-Hungarian relations, was Hedvig Malina's case.

The monument erected in memory of Daniel Tupý. The inscription says: "At this place on 4 november 2005. Daniel Tupý, a student of the Faculty of Philosophy at Comenius University was murdered"
A poem engraved into a piece of metal as part of the Daniel Tupý memorial.
It was early in the morning, when a black raven was prowling
Maybe it was in the darkness, we found ourselves helpless
It brought a new day croaking, "it was a dream" were we hoping

...for all of us
Daniel Tupý
