Prosecutor may strip AWS deputy immunity for allegedly demanding bribe

Forensic testing confirmed a tape recording of Solidarity Election Action (AWS) deputy Kazimierz Poznanski is authentic. In May 2000, the deputy was taped allegedly demanding a bribe from the head of a tax office maintaining he needed some financial support for the AWS campaign. "We
must hear several witnesses and then we will consider the issue of lifting the deputy's immunity," prosecutor Janusz Kalwas told Rzeczpospolita. "I am sure that AWS will display its battle with corruption taking appropriate steps aimed at punishing Poznanski," said Marian Krzaklewski's
presidential campaign spokesman Kajus Augustyniak. (Rzeczpospolita, page A2)
