From the Warsaw Business Journal:
Poland’s Military Counterintelligence Service (SKW) investigated whether soldiers from GROM, a special forces branch of the Polish army, helped train security guards to protect the late and recently deposed Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi.
“In the summer of 2011 we had very strong suspicions that Polish soldiers were protecting Gaddafi,” an SKW officer told Polish news channel TVP Info.
Two former GROM soldiers, Andrzej Bryl and Jazek Kowalik, have said that they did train Gadaffi’s security guards, but denied protecting the dictator himself.
“We trained Gaddafi’s equivalent of the Polish Government Protection Bureau,” Andrzej Bryl told TVP Info.
He explained that the training took place long before the Arab Spring, with Mr Kowalik adding that this project ended at the beginning of 2010, and that GROM did not stay longer in Libya.
