Prosecutors have opened an investigation into a group masquerading as public officials at Warsaw Central Station, while Prime Minister Donald Tusk labeled the unauthorized identification checks as political hooliganism. <\/p>\n
The Regional Prosecutor’s Office in Warsaw has initiated proceedings concerning individuals posing as public officials and conducting identity checks at Warsaw Central Station. The investigation follows a June 13 incident reported by regional spokesperson Mateusz Martyniuk on June 17.<\/p>\n
Footage circulating online shows men in uniforms resembling official gear exiting a van marked “BPG” and “Bronimy Polskiej Granicy” (Defending Polish Border). The individuals are seen standing over two people of dark complexion inside the station. The Ministry of the Interior and Administration has confirmed that impersonating a public official is a criminal offense.<\/p>\n
Warsaw police have been gathering evidence for several days following an order from Interior Minister Marcin Kierwi\u0144ski. Police spokesperson Jacek Wi\u015bniewski confirmed authorities have identified the individuals, though no official complaints from victims have been filed yet. He advised the public to request official identification or call 112 if approached by unauthorized persons.<\/p>\n
Prime Minister Donald Tusk dismissed the group’s actions as “hooliganism” rather than a widespread issue, vowing that such behavior will be met with the full force of the law. He asserted that the group is attempting to manufacture a non-existent refugee crisis to undermine the government’s migration policy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
