POLAND: Court Rules Candidate Kaczynski Must Retract False Statement.
REUTERS/ Judge Agnieszka Matlak ruled that Jaroslaw Kaczynski must publicly retract a comment he made suggesting that his opponent Bronislaw Komorowski wanted to privatize the public health system. Komorowski had filed a legal complaint. Some analysts say Kaczynski can now be portrayed as a liar. Recent polls show Komorowski winning Sunday's vote by a margin of up to 14% points but short of the 50% plus level required to win outright. A second, decisive round would then have to be held on July 4.
