The prosecution received disturbing instructions from lawyer General Adam Bodnar. He commands “highest” professionalism in determining why a doctor refuses to execution a kid in the womb. It's like opposing a conscience to commit execution on an innocent kid isn't adequate cause...
Information about the fresh guidelines of lawyer General Adam Bodnar for prosecutors was published on Friday evening on the websites of the National Prosecutor's Office. "Guidelines are 1 of the forms of prosecution management by the lawyer General, their aim is to guarantee the appropriate performance of statutory duties, as well as the impact on raising the level of work of prosecutors. As a substance of fact, they do not change the laws in force, they service as ancillary in the work of the prosecutor" - explained PG prok. Anna Adamiak.
However, it seems that, under the pretext of "ensure appropriate performance of statutory duties", prosecutors under the Tusk Government have received guidance to advance the agenda of impunity-free prenatal murders. It is further stated that the intent of the guidelines is to "codify standards for the conduct of preparatory proceedings" in cases relating to the refusal to commit infanticide.
The paper besides mentions proceedings against women who have carried out alleged abortions against the existing explanation of the law. "The methodical guidelines contained in the Guidelines take into account that the conducts conducted are entering the most intimate sphere of women's life and interfering with their rights and freedoms. This should prompt the prosecutor to keep the highest level of reliability and professionalism in the process. The conduct of questioning a female who has consented to abortion should be carried out with respect for her dignity. It must not lead to victimisation," the Communication states.
According to Bodnar's guidelines, the prosecutor ‘is obliged to find whether this refusal has produced effects in a pregnant female under Article 155 kk — death, Article 156 kk — severe harm to health, Article 157 kk — average and slight harm to health, Article 160 kk — vulnerability to direct danger of failure of life or health’. In this context, it is peculiarly worrying to read about the "exposure" to the danger, as it seems to open up a broad field of explanation to the detriment of doctors who stay faithful to Hippocrates' oath and their conscience, refusing to commit execution on an unborn child.
‘In cases of refusal of abortion by medical personnel, which have consequences in pregnant women under Articles 155 to 157 of the Code and Article 160 of the Code, the prosecutor should consider informing the applicable Regional Ombudsman of professional responsibility. In proceedings involving the refusal of legal abortion, the prosecutor should besides notify the Ombudsman and the local NFZ Branch with which the medical institution has concluded a contract for the provision of gynecology and obstetrics services,” the prosecution points out.
