The prosecutor has charged the deputy head of the KPRP. 'A made-up fairy tale'
The prosecutor's office in Lublin has charged Adam Andruszkiewicz, deputy head of the President's Chancellery, with directing a scheme to forge support lists for the National Movement candidates in the 2014 local elections.
The Regional Prosecutor's Office in Lublin has revived a case from over a decade ago, charging Adam Andruszkiewicz, the State Secretary and Deputy Head of the Chancellery of the President of the Republic of Poland, with supposedly leading a scheme to falsify support lists for candidates of the National Movement related to the 2014 local elections. Investigators indicate that the illicit activities occurred from early September to mid-October 2014, primarily in BiaΕystok, where the forged signatures on election lists were allegedly collected.
The prosecutors allege that Andruszkiewicz not only directed this falsification but also unlawfully processed personal data, specifically names and surnames of individuals appearing on those lists. According to reports from RMF FM, around 1,761 signatures were scrutinized during the investigation, with forensic experts comparing the evidence to determine the authenticity of the signatures against that of potential perpetrators. The evidence gathering has involved interrogating nearly 1,600 individuals connected to the case, showcasing the scale and seriousness of the allegations.
Andruszkiewicz has publicly dismissed the charges, labeling them as 'a made-up fairy tale,' which signals his intention to contest these accusations vigorously. The case raises significant questions about electoral integrity and the management of personal data, three years ahead of the next local elections, thus casting a shadow over the political landscape ahead of a crucial period in Polish governance.
