Żurek on the Revocation of the EAW against Romanowski: The Justification Convinces Me That the Judge Acted Beyond the Law

Tomasz Synowiec

- In March and April, there are two facts. One is that Romanowski is granted asylum in Hungary, and only in Hungary. Not throughout Europe. The second fact is that Interpol refuses to issue a so-called red notice. This is a practice that sometimes happens. This data is in the case files. The same court, acting singularly with the same judge, has all this data in the case files in August and, mind you, in October, it extends the European Arrest Warrant against Mr. Romanowski, despite having this data. Today, acting singularly in a non-public hearing, without notifying the prosecution at all that such a hearing would take place, it lifts the warrant for all of Europe - said Waldemar Żurek on TVN24's "Kropka nad i".

- The justification convinces me that the judge acted beyond the law and began to assess the political situation based on his understanding of that political situation, because please note, Hungary is a problem for Europe. There is a principle that states within the European Union recognize that they all represent certain values, including an independent judiciary, and when any judiciary is suppressed, the EU begins to act, just as it acted towards us in the past, and just as it is acting towards Hungary - Waldemar Żurek continued.
