Mariusz Kamiński will not appear before the Pegasus committee. "To any degree I regret it"
He added that he had heard about the call to the committee on TV. He assured that he had not received the call yet, but his reaction would be “obvious”. – I inform the public that I will not be able to present myself and to any degree regret it, due to the fact that it may sound paradoxically, but in my interest, Zbigniew Ziobro, Bogdan Święczkowski, another ministers and heads of service, it would be a full presentation of public opinion as the substance is absolutely manipulated – he said.
He harshly assessed the activities of the committee, which he felt was only about "dirty policy", alternatively than getting to the truth. In his opinion, “with full premeditation, they cynically sought to gather material that they thought justified the arrest of Zbigniew Ziobra for 30 days.” Mariusz Kamiński stated that through the members of the committee talk vileness, vanity and lust for power.
Pegasus committee. “Zbigniew Ziobro is not a sacred cow”
The president of the committee Magdalena Sroka in mid-January in the program “Tlit” WP said that Mariusz Kamiński and Maciej Wąsik will be called “in the first 3 months of this year”. She added that if they did not appear, the committee would make a motion to waive their immunity and then to bring them forward. Following Ziobra's unsuccessful lead before the committee, she stated on TVN24 that the committee was not going to play his game and to audition him anyway.
Left MP Tomasz Trela and a associate of the Pegasus investigation committee, in turn, stated in TVP Info that "Zbigniew Ziobro is not a sacred cow". “The times erstwhile the Polish state was waiting for Zbigniew Ziobro, Jarosław Kaczyński, Mateusz Morawiecki or Antoni Macierewicz are over. We will not let ourselves to wait for His Lordship Ziobro to kindly sit as a witness," he said.

In January 2024 he was pardoned by president Andrzej Duda. Mariusz Kamiński is presently a Euro MP and benefits from immunity.
