Court on the Kaczyński-Bejza case: The PiS president answered questions

On Tuesday, the capital's district court discontinued the case of PiS president Jarosław Kaczyński indicted by KO MEP Krzysztof Brejza due to the negligible social harmfulness of the act.

According to Brejza, in March 2024, Kaczyński accused him of committing serious and “disgusting crimes.” The trial in the District Court for Warsaw-Śródmieście has been ongoing since last fall.

Judge Tomasz Trębicki recalled that Kaczyński spoke as a witness before the parliamentary investigative committee on Pegasus, and the statement was made in response to one of the questions asked by the committee members to the president of PiS. More importantly, the court added, the questions also concerned “thoughts and opinions.” – This was not an independent thesis, but a statement constructed in response to a question – the judge noted.

Brejza's accusation concerned the words of the PiS president, which were made at a meeting of the investigative commission in March 2024. The PiS leader said then, referring to Brejza: “A significant opposition politician commits very serious and disgusting crimes.” In this case, the Sejm revoked Kaczyński's immunity in March last year.
