Warsaw police said they had detained the 45-year-old fugitive at a shop northeast of the capital.
"The man was stopped by police in the Bielany district because he did not have a mask," sub-inspector Elwira Kozlowska told AFP on Tuesday.
The man has now been transported to a prison where he is due to serve a 25-year sentence for murder. No further details were provided.
