Bishops call for just vetting

They spoke in favor of justice in vetting procedures and severely criticized unauthorized vetting which has more and more often taken place recently. They also pointed out that it is only the victims of the communist regime that are suffering now, while their oppressors remain free. The Bishops also called for an understanding approach towards the communist period, free from jumping to conclusions based only on the content of files, without a comprehensive attitude to the whole context of the period. They demanded vetting procedures to respect truth and love towards every person, as well as to avoid undocumented leaks and accusations. (Gazeta Wyborcza, pp.1, 2, 4) J.L.
