DISINFO: The Polish special services fabricated documents against the Polish judge for his pro-peace position
SUMMARY
The former Polish judge Tomasz Szmydt, who applied for political asylum in Belarus, does not rule out the possibility that he may be stripped of his Polish citizenship. Before his escape to Belarus, the judge spoke simple words about how the Polish, the Russian, the Belarusian and the Ukrainian nations can live in peace and harmony. However, these simple and obvious words caused a real threat to this person. The judge started to receive information from friends that the Polish special services were fabricating documents against him in order to lock him up. In this situation, the judge left Poland at the very last moment.
