". Every year, the European Parliament’s report on Human Rights tells the world how to respect these rights. However, it does not mention the situation in Member States of the European Union. I wish to draw attention to the case of Marek Dochnal and Krzysztof Maciej Popenda, two Polish businessmen, who have been in captivity since October 2004. The charges against them have been changed several times, extending with no real legal basis the prosecution procedures which allow them to be detained. This is a violation of Article 6(2) of the ECHR on presumption of innocence. Their identities and photographs have been published, in contravention of Polish law, to try to put pressure on the judges. Information about their private and family lives, not connected with the legal investigation, has been also published, which breaches Article 8 of the ECHR. These two men are victims of political persecution. Perhaps this persecution aims to refute the testimony of Mr Dochnal in front of the parliamentary committee investigating any links between certain Polish politicians and certain oil companies. I hope and trust that this Parliament will react against this abuse."@en1
