Anna Korwin-Piotrowska said on 31 October 2026 she directs Poland’s Constitutional Tribunal in place of its president. She said the same day she had interrupted the duties of judges Bogdan Święczkowski and Bartłomiej Sochański on 30 October. Her statement the same day said the Prosecutor General’s requests to lift both judges’ immunity arrived on 30 October. The tribunal’s X account @TK_GOV_PL said on 30 October that Święczkowski remains its president and Sochański its vice-president. The same post said Korwin-Piotrowska is not a tribunal judge and the tribunal’s website was taken over.
