Sasin on proposed changes to the law on the execution of a parliamentary mandate:

It could be a bludgeon to eliminate the opposition.

– I am very concerned about this draft law that has been submitted to the Sejm, which is meant to concern Minister Romanowski, but which could be a bludgeon to actually eliminate the opposition in Poland – said Jacek Sasin in an interview with Renata Grochal on "Bez Uników!" on Trójka.

– If the law states that temporarily arresting an MP is enough for them not to execute their mandate, then in this way an opposition club in the Sejm can be eliminated, or I can imagine that in a situation where the ruling majority today loses its majority in parliament, it is enough for them to arrest a few MPs and they have the matter settled – he continued.

– Purely totalitarian law – he added.
