This investigation and the actions surrounding it highlight the ongoing politicization of Poland’s prosecutorial system, a concern voiced by critics who say voices of dissent are being stifled. The sentiment echoed on social media by a PiS member of parliament calls for transparency and accountability at the highest levels of government and justice.
A few days ago, a Polish MEP spoke from the European Parliament about alleged violations of human rights and the rule of law in Poland, tied to actions by the government under Donald Tusk. The same speaker claimed that the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg is reviewing a complaint alleging the use of coercive measures against him in a political context.
On social media, the MEP described alleged tensions between Polish political leadership and EU oversight bodies, asserting that the discussions with European Justice Commissioner Didier Reynders focused on concerns about the rule of law in the country and the political dimensions of legal proceedings.
Bodnar’s Revenge
The PiS politician argued that Adam Bodnar’s initiatives aimed at removing immunity from a parliamentary member illustrate a broader trend of politicization within the prosecution service and potential legal overreach in Poland. The speaker stated that an immunity vote was being pursued, even though the mandate withdrawal process had not yet been finalized. The speaker claimed that the investigation and Bodnar’s actions served as further evidence of politicization within the prosecutor’s office and insisted that the drive to silence opposition voices would fail.
