Michał Kołodziejczak suspended from Civic Coalition club

Michał Kołodziejczak, a former Deputy Minister of Agriculture and leader of Agrounia, has been suspended from the Civic Coalition (KO) parliamentary club with immediate effect. The decision follows a report by Kanał Zero featuring allegations from two former female associates.

The women have accused Kołodziejczak of physical and psychological violence, including verbal abuse, throwing objects, and physical aggression. One woman alleged he used force to prevent her from ending their professional relationship, resulting in a fall down stairs. Additionally, the report includes allegations of economic abuse and claims that Kołodziejczak pressured associates to use illegal substances, specifically identifying one instance involving cocaine.

Kołodziejczak has denied all allegations, characterizing them as slanders. He has since appeared before the Internal Security Agency (ABW) in Łódź to submit documents related to the matter. His legal representative, detective Krzysztof Rutkowski, stated that a notification regarding 'patostreaming' was filed with the police. The Civic Coalition club has expressed solidarity with the women and is calling for a formal investigation by the appropriate services to verify the claims.
