Polish judicial council probes justice minister's attack on judge over EU arrest warrant

Poland's National Council of the Judiciary (KRS) has formed a special team to examine Justice Minister Waldemar Żurek's personal attack on Judge Konrad Mielcark, who issued a European Arrest Warrant for Marcin Romanowski. This marks an escalation in the ongoing conflict between the Polish government and the judiciary over the independence of judges. The move signals potential disciplinary action against the minister, which could further strain EU-Poland relations.
