Deputy gives weak explanation against accusation of forged signatures

Members of Parliament say they had no idea that an investigation was underway into alleged forgery of signatures on Self-Defense Deputy Renata Beger's list of signatures to support her candidacy to be eligible to stand for election to parliament. They added if they had known, they would not have voted for her to join the Rywin Commission. According to the Poznan regional prosecutor's office 2,000 people whose signatures are on Beger's list deny these are their signatures. Berger refutes this by arguing that they must have been intimidated into saying that. The signatures have yet to be verified by a police expert, but if proven fake the prosecutor will turn to parliament to lift her immunity and charge her with a criminal offense. Interestingly enough, even if her immunity is removed, Beger will still remain a member of the Commission. (Rzeczpospolita, p. A6) J.K.
