The Human Rights Commission of the Supreme Council of the Bar Association of Poland has released a statement, expressing its deep concern over the recent facts, when the arrested after the 19 December protest, including four former presidential candidates, have been unable to access their legal counsels.

“It is intolerable that advocates are prosecuted in connection with the nature of charges brought against their clients. This will inevitably lead to a situation when the right to legal protection will become nothing but illusion for certain kinds of citizens”, says the statement.
