“In many cases, the political goal has become dominant to the law,” this is what prosecutors say today about the work of prosecutors Zbigniew Ziobro. They talk about deliberate discontinuation of investigations, or extending them indefinitely, if they were uncomfortable for the authorities of that time.
– I have been demanding justice for 11 years – says former deputy head of KNF Wojciech Kwaśniak. He is not talking about success yet, but this is the first step to explain how the previous authorities treated him. His case was included in a report revealing irregularities in the action of the prosecutor's office led by Zbigniew Ziobra.
– I would expect someone to settle the liability of persons who created this system, and persons who did not act in accordance with the law – says Wojciech Kwaśniak, former chairman of the Polish Financial Supervision Authority.
Wojciech Kwaśniak as the deputy head of the Polish Financial Supervision Authority was brutally beaten and miraculously avoided death. “My skull was broken, my hand was broken,” he said.
11 years ago, he headed the group examining irregularities in the activities of SKOKs, and the beating was to be a way to silence him. Despite this, power during the rule PIS She accused Kwaśniak of failure to fulfill her duties.
The trial is still in court, but the new prosecutor's office is to change tactics in this case. – Prime Minister and Minister Bodnar promised me a reliable explanation of the matter – says Wojciech Kwaśniak.
Deliberate relieving and extending forever investigations
The report presented on Tuesday by a special team of prosecutors is the second part of the document on which investigators from the National Prosecutor's Office are working on. In total, they re -analyzed 600 cases conducted during the previous power.
– In many cases, the political goal has become dominant to the law – said Katarzyna Kwiatkowska from the National Prosecutor's Office. This is the most serious accusation.
Prosecutors talk about deliberate discontinuation or extending forever investigations uncomfortable for contemporary power. Some were initiated only for political reasons, others were twisted for the same reasons.
– They were conducted in an unreliable and non -objective way – explained Katarzyna Kwiatkowska.
An example is not only the matter of Kwaśniak, but also the accusation of the former deputy minister of health from Platforma Obywatelska, Sławomir Neumann, for accepting a bribe. Ziobry's prosecutor's office was accusing, but after years the court acquitted the policy.
The prosecutor's office used for personal purposes
The prosecutor's office was also to be used for personal purposes – this is the matter of the death of Father Zbigniew Ziobra. The report also returns the investigation into voting on the budget in the column hall and the false testimonies of PiS politicians. The proceedings in this case are to be resumed. – I also recommended the team to undertake this procedure – said Katarzyna Kwiatkowska.
– This shows what pathology the prosecutor's office came to, when Zbigniew Ziobro managed her work – commented Krzysztof Kwiatkowski, senator of the Civic Coalition.
– At this point, the division of some possible shortcomings for the previous prosecutor's office is tragicomic – believes Marcin Horała, MP of Law and Justice.
Not quite, because the report will have measurable results. Part of the proceedings are to resume. There will also be applications for discipline for people who managed the prosecutor's office at that time.
“These harm and the errors that this power made must be successfully repaired, and this trust is rebuilt,” she commented Agnieszka Dziemianowicz-Bąkminister of family, work and social policy from the new left.
