- No, it was a rhetorical figure, and I am aware that some people, law professors, say, "No, don't speak like that, it's not proper for a minister," but we know that in colloquial language, when state services, in order to ensure the regularity of a process, apprehend wanted persons by various methods, and we see that this happens all over the world, we know that it is sometimes on the verge of legality, sometimes it fits within the certain pragmatism of services. I am not a proponent of such actions - said Waldemar Żurek in Polsat News, when asked if he regretted his words about "bringing Zbigniew Ziobro back in the trunk."

- Even if such suggestions appeared somewhere in someone's head, "after all, he can be brought back from Budapest, there are so many detective agencies that would do it for fun," I definitely say: no, but I also want to convey a message to the citizen who understands what it means. It's a rhetorical figure, it doesn't have to be a trunk at all, it's about figuratively sweeping someone off the street and not caring about legal regulations - he continued.
