The police received documents on the bringing of PiS politicians – Mariusz Kaminski and Maciej Vesic – to the penitentiary. However, they stay in the presidential palace, where – as they told the media – They are conducting negotiations with President Andrzej Duda. Due to the confusion surrounding the arrest of the former CBA leaders, the Speaker of the Seimas, Shimon Holovnye, decided to postpone the session of the Chamber scheduled for this week.
Tusk comments
Prime Minister Donald Tusk commented on this at the press conference. – There are no guidelines for the Prime Minister or the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the head of the administration on what to do when convicts are to be transferred to an institution and they remain in the presidential palace. This is an obvious use of a situation where no one would use force against an institution like the presidency, he said.
– What worries me is that the president joined the activities organized by Jaroslaw Kaczynski and his people from PiS and which are aimed at the foundations of the state, – said the head of the government. Tusk then read an article from the Criminal Code that deals with the protection of criminals. He turned to President Andrzej Duda. – You must stop this play. You will be fully responsible for the sabotage of the constitution, for the abuse of power that you still have in many places. It is not acceptable. I will personally take care of it, assured the PO leader.
Paprocka: The only possible solution is to receive a pardon
– There is only one solution to this issue. To take a step, calm emotions and recognize the pardon of 2015 – said Malgorzata Paprocka, Minister in the Chancellery of the President, on Radio Three.
According to him, “this is the only solution in this matter, because at the moment everyone has legal arguments, everyone has decisions, and it is very difficult for a citizen who wants to learn about this case to form an opinion.”
When asked whether Andrzej Duda can take a step back and sign the second amnesty, Paprocka answered: – The president speaks clearly. All state bodies are obliged to act in accordance with the law. Let's return to the protection of the Constitution in this regard and the matter will be resolved.
The head of the presidential office, Gražina Ignacak-Bandić, said last week that the first pardon remains in force, which is why the head of state does not intend to make a similar decision again in the case of Kaminski and Vesik.
