Power struggle goes on in PiS: media
18:12
Gazeta Wyborcza daily published a text about testimonies given by gangsters to the courts about Patrycja Kotecka, wife of the minister of justice, Zbigniew Ziobro.
It is no secret that Patrycja Kotecka had contacts with gangsters, mafias, and detectives in the past as an investigative journalist. The problem is assessing their character.
Gangsters say, however, that she crossed journalistic borders, and even acted on their behalf. Some go further by testifying in investigations or suggesting that she has established intimate relationships with gangsters
It is very important to emphasize that all the testimonies of gangsters can be libel. Patrycja Kotecka refused to answer the specific questions of Gazeta Wyborcza briefly cutting off that the testimonies of gangsters are the lies. Pro-government media and a spokeswoman for the Ministry of Justice have already stood up for the minister's wife.
Many observers suspect that the whole row is the result of the power war in PiS. The main prosecutor of Patrycja Kotecka - the gangster "Broda" - was credited by Mariusz Kamiński, today the Minister of the Interior and coordinator of special services.
In view of such serious accusations, however, it is probably appropriate to answer the allegations very clearly, and not only: "it's fake news".
