“Something is happening to the head of the Minister.” president Duda's reaction to Bodnar's actions
– I think something is going on with the intellect, with the head of the Minister of Justice and the lawyer General – he commented on reports of Adam Bodnar sending prosecutors to the ultimate Court Andrzej Duda. As the president added, “I hope that he will yet bear the responsibility. Not only before God and history."
- On Monday, prosecutors placed a position in the ultimate Court procurator generalAdam Bodnar on the validity of the election of the president of the Republic of Poland (file I NSW 9779/25).
- They requested access to the 214 cases of electoral protests, citing orders from superiors.
- President Andrzej Duda warned Adam Bodnar that he would “take work for this. Not only before God and history."
- Attorney General Anna Adamiak informed that Adam Bodnar would waive his position on the validity of the election of the president of Poland if the resolution on this substance was taken by the Chamber of Extraordinary Control and Public Affairs.
Bodnarists entered the ultimate Court
Prosecutors entered the ultimate Court building, who, under Adam Bodnar's orders, were tasked with carrying out activities in the home of Extraordinary Control and Public Affairs, which ruled on the validity of the elections and examined electoral protests.
The case was informed by the ultimate Court.
The prosecutors besides requested entry into the IKNiSP Secretariat and issue to them an electoral protest file explaining their demands by instructions they received from superiors
“Not only before God and history.” president warns Bodnar
He referred to the case President Andrzej Duda, who was asked about the case at a press conference held in Seville in connection with the 4th UN global Conference on Financing for improvement held there.
I think there's something incorrect with the intellect, with the head of the Minister of Justice and the lawyer General, who, on the 1 hand, claims not to admit the ultimate Court Audit Chamber and, on the another hand, sends prosecutors to it. On the 3rd hand, it exists as a minister through this chamber, due to the fact that if it had not approved the results of the elections resulting from which this coalition was formed, it would never have been a minister.
He added that Adam Bodnar “should think about himself.”
If he keeps doing this, I hope he will yet bear the right responsibility. Not only before God and past – added Andrzej Duda.
Bodnar goes into denial
At the same time, a press briefing was held in Poland, the spokesperson for the General Prosecutor's Office, Anna Adamiak, who informed about the next decision of Minister Bodnar.
The lawyer General will refrain from presenting his position on the validity of the election of the president of the Republic of Poland, if the resolution on this substance is taken by the Chamber of Extraordinary Control and Public Affairs, and not the Chamber of Labour and Social Insurance SN," said Proc. Adamiak
She added that Adam Bodnar had requested the exclusion of all judges ruling in the home of Extraordinary Control and Public Affairs and the referral of the case of the validity of the election of the president of the Republic to the ruling of the Labour and Social Insurance Board of the SN.
As she stated, if the SN had taken this request into account, then the lawyer General would have asked the Labour Chamber to state the validity of the election of the president of the Republic of Poland “with the request of the ultimate Court to ask the State Election Commission to amend the minutes of the examination of voting cards in the regional electoral commissions on which the examination of protests established irregularities”.
The PG spokeswoman informed that if the SN had not complied with the lawyer General's request and the validity of the elections would have continued to be recognised by the Chamber of Extraordinary Control and Public Affairs, then the lawyer General declares that he would have resigned from presenting his position to the ultimate Court as regards the validity of the elections.
“Judges who sit in the home of Extraordinary Control and Public Affairs – as she explained – do not meet the criterion of an independent court, and thus the full home besides fails to meet these constitutional standards of independence.”
