Ruling party leader Kaczyński defends controversial candidate for high court

Jarosław Kaczyński has defended the future judge of the Constitutional Tribunal. In an interview for "Gazeta Polska Codziennie" the Law and Justice chairman said that indeed Stanisław Piotrowicz was in the Polish Workers' Party, however, he adds, he was amongst the prosecutors and judges that tried to lessen the repression. So he didn't actually do anything bad, in fact, he helped - so Kaczyński claims.
