“Stopping in prison is the criminalization of the opposition. Instead of the debate we mentioned, we have criminalization. We say, “Our opponents are criminals and must be in prison.” Democracy ends. If someone has done that, if we treat immunity and treat political conversations, every democracy ends, “said Bronisław Wildstein on television Wpolsce24.
Bronisław Wildstein was one of the guests of Magdalena Ogórek on the TV program WpolSce24 “Conspiracy Theory”.
The journalist in blunt words criticized the actions of the government associated with attempts to mass -slot of detention politicians.
Criminalization of the opposition
In this context, he drawn attention to the case of the former Minister of National Defense and former Deputy Prime Minister Mariusz Błaszczak.
Unfortunately this fits into a strategy. That is, the rulers are currently removing immunity of the opposition, to those who ruled earlier because they place them in detention centers
The publicist assessed that the goal is the same as when receiving the opposition of the funds.
Stopping in prison is the criminalization of the opposition. Instead of the debate we mentioned, we have criminalization. We say, “Our opponents are criminals and must be in prison.” Democracy ends. If someone has done that, if we treat immunity and treat political conversations, every democracy ends
He said.
The role of immunity
Bronisław Wildstein noted that “immunity does not listen to an important democratic element”
He says that it is not allowed to attract criminal liability for political activities. In the meantime, for example, the rulers say: “They had had poor material resources, they have not performed competition.” Well, it belongs to political activities. You can claim, you can say, “Okay, they have a bad thing, we will talk about it, we will condemn you for it, society will admit to us or you are right” or “they have organized the competition poorly.” This is the space of the debate
– He emphasized.
If we change the debate in a courtroom, this is the end of democracy and the dictatorial methods – we cut our political opponents and close
He noticed.
Deny standards
Magdalena Ogórek’s conversation partner pointed out that in exceptional cases the detention center is normally used, because it receives the freedom of an uninterested person who has not proven any fault.
In the meantime, the situation here is so that we can be sure that if you deduct the politician from the current opposition of immunity, the next step will bring him into arrest. It is just a denial of the standards of democracy and the standards of the rule of law
He assessed.
