Wykonywanie kary pozbawienia wolności wobec osób transpłciowych w Polsce

Abstract

The article is an analysis of the issue of how transgender people’s prison sentences are implemented in Poland. The basis for highlighting the various problems analysed in the article was the European Court of Human Rights’ judgment of 2024 in the case of W. W. v. Poland . The result of the considerations undertaken here is an argument about the necessity of adjusting Polish criminal executive law to international standards in the field of carrying out the punishment of transgender persons. To this purpose, English and Welsh legal solutions have also been used.
