Civic Platform MP suspended after travel expenses audit

Jan Kaźmierczak, a member of parliament from the ruling Civic Platform party, was suspended on Friday, Polish Radio reported. The decision relates to doubts regarding his travel expenses in an official trip to London. Kaźmierczak has told journalists that in his opinion, he did everything in accordance with the rules. Sejm Speaker Radosław Sikorski ordered an audit of MPs travel expenses after the case of three Law and Justice politicians who traveled by a budget flight after receiving cash for car fuel. The MPs, Adam Hofman, Mariusz Kamiński and Adam Rogacki, were expelled from the party. Another Law and Justice member, Zbigniew Girzyński, left the grouping on Thursday on similar grounds.
