„Winni zbrodni”? — o próbach rozliczenia „stalinowskich” prokuratorów w latach 1956—1958
“Guilty of the crime”? — on the attempts at assessing “Stalinist” prosecutors between 1956 and 1958

Summary/Abstract: Political revival in Poland in 1956 characterised by among others a progressive freedom of speech, brought about criticism of the Stalinist period, including criticism of the judiciary. At that time, the first attempt to call Stalinist prosecutors accused of breaking law and order to account. In so doing, even the special committees were established. Their conclusions were only partially realized. None of the prosecutors indicated in the committee reports was brought to court between 1956 and 1958. The only “inconveniences” some of them experienced included relegation to a different prosecutor’s position, exemption from the prosecutor’s office or lowering the military rank in the case of military prosecutors.
