Civic Coalition MP Michał Szczerba, in a conversation with Wirtualna Polska journalist Michał Wróblewski, tried to question the use of inhumane methods against PiS MPs Mariusz Kamiński and Maciej Wąsik, who left the prison where they were illegally held the day before yesterday. Apparently, the parliamentarians’ hunger protest was also a myth for him, because he thought that the parliamentarians “look better like donuts in butter than before the prison sentence started.” Didn’t he get a little lost in the story?
When the then PO MP and now independent senator, Stanisław Gawłowski, was in custody from April to July 2018 on corruption charges (the court decided to impose the arrest, but ultimately, after examining the complaints, allowed him to prison) custody after paying bail and in this way the then opposition politician was released), in fact not a day passed without reports of the difficult conditions and the terrible condition of the prisoner. On January 17, 2024, when PiS MPs Mariusz Kamiński and Maciej Wąsik were in prison and had no opportunity to comment on his statements, Stanisław Gawłowski spoke in an interview for Interia about his stay in custody and tried to brand himself as PiS keep portraying. martyrdom.”
“We were dealing with a big myth.”
Civic Coalition MP Michał Szczerba, speaking to a Wp.pl journalist in the parliamentary corridor, spoke about the case of PiS MPs Mariusz Kamiński and Maciej Wąsik, who were illegally detained and imprisoned for about two weeks. claimed that they were ‘criminals’ (and the criminals are in solitary confinement, in not particularly luxurious conditions), on the other hand he spoke of their stay in prisons as if the politicians had returned from a luxurious seaside resort.
I’m no prison specialist, but everyone can judge for themselves whether they have been tortured or whether they look like buttered donuts. In my opinion, they look like buttered donuts, better than before the prison sentence started
– he assessed.
When asked about the hunger protest, he replied:
There are facts and there are myths. And I have the impression that we were dealing with a big, big myth. It is a myth to report that someone’s health or life is in danger.
They were in greenhouse conditions, as also mentioned by Dr. Paweł Moczydłowski
– added.
Was the decision to force-feed MP Kamiński using a tube a ‘myth’, which is not only the most inhumane method, but also inappropriate for the PiS politician for health reasons? Was it a ‘myth’ that the parliamentarian was suddenly transferred to an external hospital on one of the last days of his captivity?
“The conditions were very good”
But you can hardly expect anything else from Jarosław Kaczyński. Lies were the basic instrument of this power, which was also used in the public media. We are currently engaged in building the myth of Kamiński and Wąsik, ‘political prisoners’, ‘tortured’
– Szczerba scoffed.
An inspection and visit to the Ombudsman’s office took place, which showed that the conditions in which prisoners were kept were very good
– if they are ‘criminals’ – according to Szczerba and his party colleagues – to whom it was decided to impose absolute prison sentences, is it really a reasonable solution to praise the ‘very good conditions’ in which they lived? Does that mean they were better than other inmates, or that the prison is so big that everyone would have to go there at least once to look “like a donut in butter”? Will the supporters of a ‘smiling Poland’, who would like to see all politicians and probably PiS voters in dark, rotten dungeons, be happy about this?
““Sacred PiS cows”
When asked about early elections, MP Szczerba replied:
PiS is absent from social, economic and European issues. They have nothing to say but lies, so they focus on the myth of Wąsik and Kamiński, two legally convicted criminals. Sacred PiS cows, protected by the president’s pardon law
– “box” again. PiS has a lot to say on social, economic and European issues, and it is the first government after 1989 to take social issues seriously enough to implement a real support program for families. On economic matters, PiS has not mocked the money “buried in Zakopane”, which generally “does not exist and will not exist”.
And as for European affairs, not every opposition is in the habit of reporting on their country in the European Parliament and demanding its punishment. A reasonable opposition knows that it will be the citizens, and not the government, who will suffer.
Mr. Wąsik and Mr. Kamiński look like buttered donuts. Better than before he started serving his prison sentence – says MP Michał Szczerba when asked about Jarosław Kaczyński’s words about “torture”.
We understand that in a few years’ time, MP Michał Szczerba’s colleagues from the ruling coalition will have to be held accountable for the actions they are currently taking (and Law and Justice politicians clearly say that after regaining power they will strive to responsible for illegal actions – such as taking over institutions by force – they were given an appropriate punishment), will he also praise the conditions in the prisons?
