Polish coalition drops organized crime charge in Ziobro tribunal motion
RzeczpospolitaLO·PL·2 days ago
The application to bring former justice minister Zbigniew Ziobro before Poland's State Tribunal no longer includes the charge of establishing and leading an organized criminal group, a charge that was previously central. The charge may still be pursued in separate criminal proceedings. This procedural shift reduces the political stakes of the tribunal case and signals a possible narrowing of the ruling coalition's accountability drive.
