Minister of the Interior and Administration Marcin Kierwi\u0144ski has denied prior knowledge of irregularities at Warsaw\u2019s Southern Hospital, asserting that he took decisive action to block Dawid Kacprzyk\u2019s political career within the Civic Coalition. <\/p>\n
Minister Marcin Kierwi\u0144ski stated in a TOK FM interview that he was unaware of the pathologies occurring at the Southern Hospital. He defended the Civic Coalition\u2019s response to the unfolding scandal, suggesting that the Law and Justice party would have promoted an individual like Kacprzyk to the position of health minister.<\/p>\n
Kierwi\u0144ski emphasized that he was never a proponent of Kacprzyk, noting he successfully blocked the former councilor\u2019s bid for a seat on the Warsaw City Council. He further clarified that Kacprzyk was never a formal member of the Platform or the Civic Coalition at any regional level.<\/p>\n
The minister explained that he actively prevented Kacprzyk from appearing on the 2023 parliamentary candidate list. Following a significant rift within the “Young Democrats” youth organization, leadership decided against having an official youth wing and excluded those involved in toxic internal disputes from the ballot.<\/p>\n
Kierwi\u0144ski noted that during the 2023 campaign, Kacprzyk\u2019s conduct toward other candidates was unacceptable under the internal standards of the Civic Coalition. He added that other party members had previously warned him that this young activist might become a source of future trouble.<\/p>\n
Reports from Zero.pl revealed the existence of an unofficial fast-track admission path at the Southern Hospital for Civic Coalition politicians and their families. Allegations include a dedicated “VIP room” for such figures, while other patients faced significant wait times for medical attention.<\/p>\n
Dawid Kacprzyk, a doctor under 30 without a specialization and a former district councilor, served as the coordinator of the hospital’s emergency department. Financial disclosures indicate the physician earned nearly 1.6 million zlotys in a single year through private business activities.<\/p>\n
The scandal also involves Artur Habowski, the coordinator of the hospital\u2019s morgue, who allegedly pressured grieving families to use the services of his business partner\u2019s funeral home. Habowski reportedly caused difficulties for families who chose other providers and attempted to rent out the hospital morgue for film productions.<\/p>\n
The Warsaw District Prosecutor’s Office has launched two investigations: one into Dawid Kacprzyk regarding allegations of collecting payment for shifts he did not work, and another into hospital management and potential supervisory negligence by municipal officials. Additionally, investigators are probing the suspected forgery of 20 death certificates at the facility.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
