Polish politician sentenced in sex scandal

May 19, 2008 

Samoobrona (Self-Defence) rural protest party official Jacek Popecki was sentenced to 28 months in jail for giving a woman, who had accused his party’s boss of fathering her child, drugs to induce a miscarriage. 
In late 2006, Aneta Krawczyk accused the party’s leader Andrzej Lepper of having offered her political favours for sex in 2001, and then said he had been the father of her youngest child. She said the same of Lepper’s close collaborator and MP, Stanisław Łyżwiński, and accused him of rape and sexual abuse. She also said that Popecki, who had been Łyżwiński’s aide, had tried to induce a miscarriage by giving her a labour-inducing drug called oxytocin. 
Lepper and Łyżwiński both face up to eight and ten years in jail respectively if convicted on charges of extorting "favours of a sexual nature". Prosecutors had sought a four-year sentence for Popecki.
