Road Homicide in Polish Law? Morawiecki Calls for Cross-Party Agreement

Michał Lubowicki

- Taking another person's life is murder, right? Logical and obvious. That's how it should be, but it's not for the Polish legal system, says Mateusz Morawiecki in a recording published on social media. - Recently, the whole of Poland was shaken by a tragedy in Warsaw when a drunk driver hit a car, and as a result of this accident, a father of a family died. Let's call things by their name – it was murder, and let Polish law treat it as such, he emphasized. - I am for severe penalties, and the regulations should be changed as soon as possible so that perpetrators of such accidents are duly punished. As the entire political class, we should overcome divisions as quickly as possible and enact appropriate legislation, the former prime minister appealed.
