On Tuesday, PiS MP Krzysztof Szczucki heard allegations of irregularities at the Government Legislative Centre (RCL), which he headed from 2022 to 2023. The territory Attorney's Office in Warsaw has presented him with allegations of overexecution and misconduct, for which he is facing 10 years imprisonment. Szczucki did not plead guilty and refused to testify, but applied for a look at the case file.
What are the charges against Mr PiS?
The prosecution accuses Krzysztof Szczucki of actions aimed at achieving the individual benefit of promoting his own individual as an MP candidate. According to investigators, the MP was to exceed the powers associated with the function, setting up an Education and Communication Department in the RCL. This department, with the exception of standard competition procedures, employs six people. According to prosecutors, they did not work for RCL, but were preparing for Szczucki's campaign.
Szczucki denies the allegations: “RCL was a model for others”
At the end of the hearing, Mr PiS commented on the situation, stressing that the prosecution's actions lasted very briefly. – individual data was collected from me, and then I made a declaration that I would supply explanations after reading the files. The files are to be presented to me soon," he told journalists.
Szczucki powerfully denied the allegations, calling them baseless. – I supposedly overstepped my authority, leading the Government Legislative Center, which I powerfully and powerfully deny. The Government Legislative Centre under my direction functioned correctly, reliablely, was a model for another institutions and I think that this will be reflected in this proceeding – he assured.
He besides expressed his belief that the proceedings would end with a confirmation of his innocence. “I am certain that this case will be clarified in my favour,” he added.
What's next on the case of Szczucki?
Krzysztof Szczucki's case raises large interest in both the political environment and the public. Prosecutoral allegations of abuse in the RCL may have serious consequences not only for the MP himself, but besides for the image of the institution he managed. In the coming weeks, the case file is expected to be presented, which will let a better knowing of the circumstances of the full event.
Will the charges prove justified, or will Szczucki be unscathed? The answer will come to wait for us, but 1 thing is certain – this issue will be long in the headlines of the media.
