Just one day after the re-election of the extreme right-wing anti-LGBTQ president Andrzej Duda, the PiS government is abusing its judicial power to organise a crackdown on LGBTQ activists. I have investigated the situation with local activists in Poland and have seen convincing audiovisual evidence that the police used disproportionate force during the arrest. Ma\u0142gorzata now receives professional legal assistance. For legal reasons we will wait with the disclosure of the audiovisual evidence until it is legally required.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-14735 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/spartacus.gayguide.travel\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/iHX0jVHG_400x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"320\" height=\"320\" srcset=\"https:\/\/spartacus.gayguide.travel\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/iHX0jVHG_400x400.jpg 320w, https:\/\/spartacus.gayguide.travel\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/iHX0jVHG_400x400-215x215.jpg 215w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 320px) 100vw, 320px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Like perhaps our readers*, the procedure is strongly reminiscent of Russia&#8217;s in the past.

It is a disgrace for the European Union that we allow our LGBTQ citizens to be arrested and mistreated by state force. I call on the EU to intervene immediately.
