Poland’s national prosecutor’s office is investigating whether prosecutors received legal housing allowances during the previous Law and Justice (PiS) government. The investigation includes Grażyna Stronikowska, the current head of the Polish branch of the European Public Prosecutor’s Office. News outlets “Gazeta Wyborcza” and OKO.press reported on the inquiry, which centers on the legality of these additional payments. Opposition figures claim the scrutiny of Stronikowska is a politically motivated attack. The investigation’s scope appears to focus on whether the allowances were appropriately granted and documented. No formal charges have been filed at this time, and the investigation is ongoing. The case raises questions about potential financial irregularities within the prosecutor’s office during a specific political period.
