Poland's Government Sex Investigation Shifts To Money
Warsaw, Poland 10 February, 2007 A recorded threat of violence in Poland's sex scandal has resulted in the arrest of a Polish Parliament member's assistant. And the prosecutor has raised the ire of Polish Deputy Prime Minister Andrzej Lepper as he has started following money trails he is finding as he pursues the investigation.
Coalition party Samoobrona has been in the spotlight since four women came forward with accusations of sex abuse by senior party members including party leader and Deputy Prime Minister Andrzej Lepper. The accusations include requirements of sex for work and sex in trade for advancement of husbands' political careers.
Yesterday Lepper revealed at a press conference that the prosecutor doing the investigation is questioning Samoobrona party members about party financing.
Lepper had commented that "Nobody has been hurt more than I have and Self-Defence (Samoobrona) itself has by this scandal." With the arrest of a party member, Jacek P., and investigation into party finances, he may get hurt a lot more.
Jacek P. allegedly told one of the four accusers who accused politicians of sexual harassment and rape, Aneta Krawczyk, that she should be quiet and withdraw her testimony or her children would be taken. She had previously accused him of injecting her with a drug for animals that was supposed to induce an abortion of the child that she claimed was the daughter of his boss Samoobrona MP Stanislaw Lyswinski. http://www.polskieradio.pl/zagranica/gb/dokument.aspx?iid=48037
DNA tests did not show that Lyswinski was the father. Another DNA test did not show that Lepper was the father.
But even after the test results of both were public, Jacek P. saw reason enough to threaten her children.
And even though he knew that she had recorded people previously, he went ahead with a threat without ensuring that he was not being recorded.
The prosecutor is investing this matter as a State matter so he is able to use his own judgement as to what trails he should follow. So when possible illegal financing schemes showed up, he started to follow them.
Lepper complained that this prosecutor is engaged in political prosecution and threatened to leave the Government Coalition unless he stops.
Government Minister Przemyslaw Gosiewski, head of the Council of Minister's standing committee, said that he was accustomed to Lepper making such threats.
The Prime Minister, Jaroslaw Kaczynski, involved himself earlier when he said in a radio interview that he could not imagine further cooperation with Andrzej Lepper if accusations are confirmed. He has made no comment either about Lepper's recent threat or the recent developments in the case.
