Roman Giertych attacked Radio Maryja again, arguing that the radio station was given “protection” by the Redemptorist fathers because it supported Law and Justice when it was in power. He announced that he would issue a report on this.
“The PiS settlement team, chaired by Roman Giertych, presented information on the team’s current work “in terms of information from government agencies and ministries on payments to Father Tadeusz Rydzyk and his various entities.”
The team will prepare a notice on the possibility of committing a corruption crime in which state institutions and ministries pay tribute to entities related to Radio Maryja and Father Tadeusz Rydzyk.
– said MP Roman Giertych during a special press conference.
The tribute paid by virtually all, or almost all, of the Polish government’s institutions and ministries was corrupt
– he assessed.
Giertych talks about the arrangement
Roman Giertych argued that during the reign of Law and Justice we were dealing with an agreement between the government and the media of Tadeusz Rydzyk’s father.
The deal was this. Father Tadeusz Rydzyk and his media entities, especially Radio Maryja, provided support for the Law and Justice election campaigns. And this support lasted not only during the campaigns, but also in the periods between campaigns. A few days ago we saw Mr. Czarnek’s party meeting at the Church of the Redemptorist Fathers in Krakow, which was organized as part of religious celebrations.
– he argued.
This support came at a price. This award was a tribute that we as taxpayers all paid for the institution related to Father Tadeusz Rydzyk. Without deciding whether there has been a crime, because that is what the Public Prosecution Service and an independent court are for, it is our duty to report this case, because we are talking about very serious financial matters and a very serious relationship that is unhealthy .
– he attacked.
Finally, Roman Giertych said that it hurts him as a believer.
As a believer, I would like to say that I am extremely sorry that such a situation has occurred in the institution of the Catholic Church
- he spoke.
Giertych attacks Radio Maryja again
This is not the first time Roman Giertych has attacked Radio Maryja. He previously argued that the Toruń radio station should be censored and its broadcasting license revoked.
Our country cannot remain silent about the open participation of the entire structural Catholic Church in the subsequent PiS election campaigns, and we have countless examples of such participation.
I am not advocating the termination of the Concordat. However, I suggest that it be respected by both parties. Because Redemptorists do not accept the independence and autonomy of the state, the state has no reason to grant them concessions, privileges or subsidies. I believe that the issue of revoking the license of Radio Maryja should be one of the first legal and factual decisions to be taken after winning the presidential elections, and that its possible granting to another ecclesiastical institution can only can be done after compliance with the Concordat has been guaranteed by new publishing houses and other ecclesiastical institutions.
– he wrote in a social media post in August.
This submission received a response from Radio Maryja, which sent an open letter to lawyer Giertych.
We read your entry as an unlawful attack on Radio Maryja, Catholics gathered around Radio Maryja and Father Tadeusz Rydzyk. The entry insults institutions and people. Your statement is a simple continuation of the brutal attack on the radio and its management, which we have been observing for many years, and currently this attack has intensified, which your message only confirms.
– it replied.
As you can see, Roman Giertych continues his attempts to destroy the circles he does not like, and whose sympathy he sought in the past.
