POLAND: A writer is facing up to three years in prison for calling the president a “moron” on social media.

Jakub Zulczyk criticised President Andrzej Duda’s reaction to Joe Biden’s US presidential electoral victory last year.

Mr Zulczyk said on Monday that a district prosecutor in Warsaw had filed an indictment against him based on an article in the penal code making it a crime to insult the head of state.
