Demonstration Before the Arrest
In front of the Warsaw Służewiec detention center on Ul. Kłobucka a protest unfolds in support of Father Michał Olszewski. The scene features white and red flags and banners bearing messages such as Free Father Michał and Solidarity with Father Olszewski. Plaques carry the image of Blessed Jerzy Popiełuszko. Among the participants is Antoni Macierewicz, a vice-president of the ruling party.
Several dozen people, possibly more than a hundred, gathered outside the detention facility. Individuals from across the country joined the demonstration to voice opposition to how Fr. Olszewski was depicted after the weekly Sieci published details about his detention.
A reporter described the mood at the gathering, noting a strong mix of concern, resolve, and disbelief about the treatment of the priest. A participant spoke of a sense of betrayal and a longing for a freer society, while many attendees came together spontaneously to pray for Fr. Olszewski and to show solidarity in his difficult moment.
Photographs from the event offer a window into the crowd and the emotions of those present. The scene captured a mix of dignified quiet, chants, and the shared hope that Fr. Olszewski would see support from fellow believers and citizens alike.
On Tuesday, July 9 at 17:40 a demonstration in defense of Father Michał Olszewski is planned in front of the Sejm of the Republic of Poland. Organizers invite supporters to join in opposing what they describe as heavy handed methods. A call to action on a Sovereign Poland profile urges people to express discontent with the use of so called UB methods by the current teams and to resist any return to the worst years of the Polish People’s Republic. A petition is also available on a dedicated site for this cause. Additional notes point to ongoing coverage of the case and related statements from human rights observers and public figures. The narrative continues to highlight concerns about the treatment of Fr. Olszewski and the broader implications for civil liberties.
Related discussions emphasize investigations by human rights bodies and public discourse around how such incidents align with the values of a free society. Readers are urged to explore further updates and perspectives on the case.
