There is no consent of the Police Commander -in -Chief General Marek Boroń, that the profession we practice would be a circumstance in criminal proceedings – we read in a statement of KGP. The commandant also wants information about the number of unjustified cases of police arrests.
The statement of KGP is a reaction to the detention of four policemen – Tomasz C., Wojciech N., Patryk M. and Artur S. They were brought to the District Prosecutor's Office in Warsaw, where they heard allegations of exceeding the rights in overpowering the perpetrator of the perpetrator of a loud murder at the presbytery six years ago. The case was described by Onet by reporting that policemen were detained on July 16.
To this situation, he referred on Saturday evening on the profile of the Police Headquarters on the portal of Gen. insp. Marek Boroń.
As we read in the entry, Boroń “ordered the Commander of the Police Office to prepare information on the number of cases of detention of police officers on the order of the prosecutor's office and bringing on procedural actions in a situation where such a decision was not caused by the actual need to take care of the correct course of conduct (e.g. a significant passage of time from the event, or stopping to non -salimation).”
The entry added that the procedure “is related to the event a few days ago, when police officers were detained and brought to activities, although six years have passed since the event. “The prosecutor supervising the proceedings did not agree to the call of policemen,” emphasizes KGP.
The information prepared by the BSWP is to be used by the Chief Police Commander to develop with the prosecutor's office the “appropriate procedure”.
“There is no consent of the Police Commander -in -Chief, but also of our entire formation, that our profession is a circumstance in criminal proceedings. Policemen serve others every day and have the right to be treated in the same way as the rest of the citizens” – was also declared in the entry.
The issue of detaining four policemen concerns the events of April 11, 2019. Then 41-year-old Jan B. attacked 64-year-old Marek T., who came to the church with his wife. During the event, the woman confessed, and the victim visited the priest for the presbytery. The perpetrator was supposed to hit Marek T. several times, and then put him on the floor of the church. A priest started to help the victim, who was also attacked by Jan B. The priest informed the police and ambulance about the incident. After resuscitation, the victim was taken to the hospital, where he died.
The prosecutor presented Jan B. two allegations. The first concerns the assassination of 64-year-old Marek T. by asking him a dozen or so blows on the head and hitting the victim's head against the floor. The preliminary autopsy protocol shows that the victim died as a result of “extensive craniopulmonary injuries.” The second allegation concerns causing injury to a priest who tried to overpower him.
In October 2020, the investigation in this matter was discontinued and the suspected of his commitment Jan. B. found psychiatric treatment in a closed plant.
On Saturday, the Minister of the Interior and Administration Marcin Kierwiński announced a meeting in this matter with the Minister of Justice Waldemar Żurek. As he wrote on the portal X, “the government attaches great importance to the independence of the prosecutor's office”, but it cannot “understand the decision of one of the prosecutors to detain police officers who included the perpetrator of the crime.”
The Police Headquarters also referred to the case earlier. “In connection with the police commander conducted by the prosecutor's office, at the request of three police officers in service, he granted them pursuant to Article 66a point 3 of the Police Act on the costs of legal aid they incurred,” said KGP on portal X.
As the spokesman for the District Prosecutor's Office in Warsaw, Piotr Skiba explained in an interview with PAP, a long break in the proceedings resulted from waiting for specialist opinions. – First of all, an expert opinion in the field of incapacitation, lecturers of the academic police school with very extensive experience, which showed irregularities in the proceedings of these officers – he said.
Then the prosecutor's office waited for the opinion of experts in forensic medicine to determine whether the health condition that occurred at the overpower could be caused by the actions of these officers. However, the opinion did not allow the clearly statement that it could have been.
Skiba pointed out that the prosecutor conducting the proceedings at the very beginning decided that “for the good of the preparatory proceedings, it is necessary to interrogate four officers on the same day, against whom a decision was issued to present allegations and two witnesses – officers who were on the places of the incident who did not directly participate in incapacitation.”
– As part of the official progression and as part of the preparatory proceedings, there was a concealment by some officers relevant to this intervention, which meant that there is a need to avoid contact and cooperation of these officers immediately before the interrogation and procedural activities carried out in the District Prosecutor's Office in Warsaw – emphasized Skiba.
