Marcin Romanowski, an MP from Sovereign Poland, who was detained in connection with the investigation into the Justice Fund, was released just before midnight on Tuesday by the decision of the District Court for Warsaw-Mokotów. The reason is the immunity as a member of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe.
On Tuesday, the President of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, in response to a complaint by Romanowski's defense attorney, Bartosz Lewandowski, sent a letter to the Speaker of the Sejm in which he confirmed the validity of Romanowski's PACE immunity and called for the proceedings to be suspended until it was repealed.
"In connection with my illegal detention, together with attorney Bartosz Lewandowski, we will send a notice to the prosecutor's office," - Romanowski announced on social media.
His attorney already informed yesterday that his client intends to report the possibility of crime being committed.
One of the leading politicians from governing coalition accidently revealed that the arrest was made based on the wishes of the politicians and not the prosecutors.
