By 579 0

After the couple, who had found their son’s ashes which they brought to Cyprus from Sweden to scatter in a beautiful place stolen, made a emotional appeal though a media, the thief, who was moved emotionally by the appeal of the couple, has contacted the couple to express his deep sorrow and revealed the location where they could found the ashes.

The couple, who flew back to Poland after the incident, will return to Cyprus to collect the ashes and to scatter the ashes in some beautiful place.

The Cyprus police have arrested around three people in connection with the incident. One of the three is said to be a woman.

The couple’s son died of an accident at least five months ago. They wanted to do the ash scatter ceremony in a beautiful and warm region in Cyrus to end their worst year in a suitable manner.

The couple said they were no longer angry with the thief. They also added the thief had a good heart.

At this moment, it remains unclear the Cyprus judiciary would take a lenient stand against the culprit.

Polish SC expresses concern about proposed judicial reforms of Govt.

By 526 0

The Supreme Court of the European country of Poland has expressed its concerns about the recently proposed judicial reforms of the government.

The court has warned the Polish government of serious consequences. It said if the proposal was implemented the country would have to leave the European Union.

Meanwhile, the Polish government has dismissed the concerns raised by the top court of the country. It said the country’s judicial system had not yet recovered fully from its communist hangover.

The polish government has justified the proposed judicial reforms as an effort to help the judicial system to recover completely from its communist hangover.

The European country of Poland was under the clutches of communism for several years in the past.

The present government is of the opinion that the country has not yet recovered fully from the clutches of the communist hangover.

The EU has not yet responded to the issue. No European superpower has commented on the issue either.

The confrontation between the Polish government and its judicial system is not a new thing. Since the induction of the present government, it is in a bad relation with the country’s judicial system.

The new proposal allows the government to push with serious punishment including dismissal those judges who, the government thinks, intervenes in the politics of the country.

Poland angry with Netflix documentary about Nazi death camps

By 697 0

The Polish government has expressed its dissatisfaction against a documentary released by digital content giant Netflix.

What that the aforesaid documentary discusses is the sensitive story of Nazi death camps.

The Polish government has criticised the digital giant of misrepresenting certain facts about the Nazi occupation in Poland.

The government has opposed the portrayal of the issue in the manner that Poland was also responsible to what happened to those admitted in the Nazi death camps during the Second World War.

Poland has criticised the digital giant of not highlighting the fact that Poland was annexed by Germany prior to the erection of the death camps in Auschwitz.

The digital giant has not yet given an elaborate statement on the issue. Yet, it has acknowledged the awareness of the concerns raised by Poland. And, it has assured of taking serious actions to address the crisis.

This is not the first time a Netflix documentary has invited criticism; earlier, a Netflix documentary about OSHO attracted similar allegation of misrepresentation.

At this moment, it remains unclear whether the Polish government would take any serious action against the digital content giant in this matter.

Netflix has tens of thousands of customers in Poland. So, it cannot handle this issue as insensitively as it handled the OSHO issue.

By 1754 0

A Polish court has banned the sale of ‘LGBT – free zone’ sticker in Poland. The court ordered the conservative newspaper Gazeta Polska, to stop the distribution of “LGBT-free zone” stickers. The newspaper included these stickers in its recent weekly issue.

Gazeta Polska is a weekly magazine which has a circulation of around 110,000 and supports the the conservative governing Law and Justice party (PiS).

The sticker showed a rainbow flag on which a black cross is imposed. A huge outcry had been caused by these stickers and sparked criticism from the US ambassador to Poland.

Reports are yet to be received on whether the stickers alone are banned or the magazine itself is banned.

Reports said that, the ruling meant the stickers should immediately disappear from all places of sale, according to a lawyer who brought the legal action on behalf of a Polish LGBT activist.

The editor-in -chief of the magazine Gazeta Polska reportedly said that the magazine had not been withdrawn from the shops.

Polish media busts illegal beef racket

By 935 0

A Polish media has busted a racket, which has allegedly smuggled sick cattle into Poland and sold them illegally in their abattoirs. The Polish investigators have launched an investigation into the illegal racket. The report has considerably reduced the demand of Polish beef across the European continent.

How popular is Polish beef in Europe

Poland is the seventh largest producers of beef. Its beef is not as popular as the beef produced in Ireland, Spain, Italy, the UK, Germany and France. The UK is the biggest importer of Polish beef. It imports Polish beef as much as it imports Irish beef.

As per the EU regulation, no slaughter house should slaughter cattle in the absence of medical expert. The video released proves that there were no medical personals in the featured slaughter houses when they performed the slaughtering. The Polish authorities see this absence through suspicious eyes, like many who have watched that video.    

What the Polish media has found

Through a sting operation, it has exposed the illegal way some of the Polish abattoirs operate. The video released by the media shows the presence of sick cattle in certain Polish abattoirs.

What veterinary experts say

A veterinary expert says that the video released by the media is reliable, and clearly proves the illegality of the operations carried out by those abattoirs featured in that.

Is this the first time such a report has surfaced

In the past, a large amount of meat was withdrawn from the EU market due to a similar issue.

Europeans respect quality more than any thing else. No other continent gives importance to quality as much as the Europe does.

The European Union market follows high market standards. In the EU market, no goods and services which compromise on its quality are encouraged. Often the EU countries fail to comply with that necessity. In most situations, that is done purposefully to amass huge profit.

The latest development is also seen as the one intended to gain profit.
