Myrcha:

Emilia Was Financed, Likely by Ministry of Justice Funds, Both Formally and Informally

- Today, as opposition MPs, we demand full access to the documentation held within this ministry. Poles have the right to know the background of Minister Piebiak's resignation. Whether he entered this building [Ministry of Justice] since his resignation, whether he had contact with his work phone, computer, because the questions appearing in the public sphere, suggesting that evidence of this entire affair may have already been tampered with or erased, remain unanswered by the ministry. We demand information regarding civil-law contracts, because as we know, Emilia - that is the name of the Twitter account - was financed, both formally and informally, likely with funds from the Ministry of Justice. We demand information about the entry and exit logs, to ascertain whether Minister Piebiak entered the ministry after submitting his resignation, and also whether she, or her husband, who we know allegedly mediated the transfer of funds, frequently visited the ministry, perhaps to discuss specific actions with the ministry's leadership. There are hundreds of questions, and so far, no answers - stated Arkadiusz Myrcha at a press conference in front of the Ministry of Justice.

- We have submitted a document to the ministry containing a list of the documents we are requesting. We were told by employees that these documents will be prepared immediately. We believe in the good intentions of the employees working in this department - added the Civic Platform MP.
