00:00Polish President Karol Nawrocki cut short his flight to Senegal on Friday, saying he needed
00:04to be in Poland amid a dispute over the Constitutional Tribunal.
00:09Law and Justice Party supporters protested the suspension of its president, Bogdan Sviyeczkowski.
00:15Responding to incidents during the demonstration outside the tribunal, riot police were deployed
00:19on the grounds of the tribunal but had not entered the building.
00:25The suspension was announced by Judge Anna Korvin-Pietrovska.
00:30Justice Minister Waldemar Zurek has asked for immunity to be lifted for Sviyeczkowski and
00:35his deputy Bartolomeusz Sokanski.
00:38The tribunal's official ex-account called the move a coup d'etat and said Korvin-Pietrovska
00:43was not one of its judges.
00:45The dispute centers on judges appointed under PIS, which governed from 2015 to 2023.
00:52The EU accused the court of being too close to that government.
00:57Prime Minister Donald Tusk pledged to resolve the dispute after his 2023 election victory,
01:02but Nawrocki has blocked his court appointments.
