The Chancellery of the Sejm is conducting a review to determine whether a breach of the physical integrity of the Marshal’s guards occurred, as announced by Stanisław Zakrzywymski, the director general of the Office of the Chairman of the Sejm. A group of PiS lawmakers attempted to bring forward former CBA leaders Mariusz Kamiński and Maciej Wąsik during the Sejm session, but the Marshal Guard obstructed the move. The Sejm paused its proceedings and will reconvene on Thursday at 9 a.m.
The Sejm Chancellery will examine, with careful assessment, any case in which the physical integrity of government officials such as the Marshal’s guards may have been compromised, according to Zakrzyczymski, who serves as the director general of the Sejm Speaker’s Office. The report was carried by TVN 24.
There has been repeated rhetoric from President Kaczyński and numerous PiS politicians about a protective shield behind the Polish uniform. Marshal Hołownia emphasized that the rights and personal immunity of the officers who maintained public order inside the Sejm buildings must be respected, noting that those officers acted strictly according to the Marshal Guard Law passed during the PiS administration and in accordance with the Sejm Rules of Procedure.
Officials indicated that on Wednesday a faction of PiS MPs attempted to introduce former CBA chiefs Kamiński and Wąsik to participate in the Sejm sessions, even though their parliamentary mandates had lapsed. The Marshal’s Guard prevented their entry.
Continuity of Marshal Guard Leadership
When asked if the present Marshal Guard personnel is the same as during the previous term, Zakrzyczymski stated that the leadership under Marshal Hołownia believes there are no officers tied to a single party or gained through political alignment. The officers are described as representatives of the Republic of Poland.
Commander Michał Sadoń remains in his post, with full cooperation reported. The Marshal’s Guard continues to follow the law and the Sejm’s procedural rules, carrying out orders from the Marshal of the Sejm to preserve order within Sejm premises.
The Marshal’s Guard is a uniformed unit reporting to the Sejm Chair, established to safeguard both the Sejm and the Senate. The force includes more than 200 personnel, and its leadership structure involves a commander and a deputy, both appointed and dismissed by the head of the Sejm’s Chancellery.
Additional context from coverage includes ongoing scrutiny over the incident and related images circulating online. The broader discussion concerns the balance between secure proceedings and the rights of individuals involved in parliamentary processes.
The events have prompted reflections on how orders are issued, how protection services operate during parliamentary sessions, and how enforcement is aligned with existing legal frameworks and rules of procedure. This situation is being interpreted within the legal and institutional norms governing the Republic’s parliamentary security forces.
Overall, the focus remains on ensuring orderly sessions while respecting the rights and immunities of those who serve to maintain public order inside the Sejm’s complex. A formal review is expected to clarify whether any guidelines or laws were violated and to determine appropriate next steps.
