Here is a tough Polish guy. His name is Tomasz Strzelczyk.
An officer of Anti Corruption Agency. Nominated during Mr Tusk`s first gov in 2009, was oppressed by PiS rightist apparatchiks in 2015-2023 but endured all persecution coz he was determined to fight crime.
Today, he will probably become the head of the Agency.
Mr Strzelczyk, hats off to you. You are not only tough but also a decent man. If I were younger, you would be my role model.

Read the story of him being persecuted by PiS rightist apparatchiks:
This is co
nfirmed by another of our informants, who wishes to remain anonymous. - When PiS came to power at the end of 2015, the coordinators of the services, Mariusz Kamiński and Maciej Wąsik, as well as Ernest Bejda, the new head of the CBA, decided that Strzelczyk was Wojtunik's man and had to be gotten rid of. They began to harass him. They removed him from the chief's position and first put him on leave for three months. He was removed from all cases.
- Then, to discourage him and force him to leave of his own free will, they demoted him and offered him a much lower position in the CBA branch in Gdańsk. He was to work as an "ordinary" agent. Refusal of this offer would mean dismissal from the service. Strzelczyk gritted his teeth and agreed, because he wanted to continue working and pursuing criminals. Actually, even before he reached his new place, probably to discourage him even more, they sent him to the branch office of the Gdańsk branch - to Bydgoszcz - adds our interlocutor.
- What could he do, he gritted his teeth again and ended up in Bydgoszcz. He was still bullied there. His superiors used him, assigning him various tasks from investigative cases to... changing a tire in a car. To "push" him even further, they ordered him to deliver summonses all over the country. So from Bydgoszcz he drove with summonses to Łódź, Katowice and Suwałki, all in one day - recalls the Onet informant.
