Refusal of the procedure and the notification

A patient at a hospital in Brochów, Wrocław, had a scheduled legal termination of pregnancy, but it did not take place (Godek szczuje policją na ciężarne. We Wrocławiu kobieta nie doczekała się legalnej aborcji | MamaDu.pl – mamadu.pl). Kotula wants the prosecutor's office to establish whether sensitive data about the patient was passed from the facility to Kaja Godek's foundation (Odmowa aborcji i podejrzenie wycieku danych. Sprawa trafiła do prokuratury – Bankier.pl). Kotula filed the notification with the prosecutor's office (Wyciek danych pacjentki po aborcji. Kotula składa zawiadomienie do prokuratury – Bankier.pl).

Suspected leak

The representative wants to establish who passed information about the woman to outside parties and under what circumstances (Zawiadomienie do prokuratury ws. wycieku danych pacjentki – TVP Wrocław). According to the notification, the data was supposed to reach an anti-abortion foundation run by Kaja Godek. The author of the MamaDu article claims the foundation obtained it illegally.

Police intervention

The case reportedly also ended with a police intervention at the hospital.

Sensitive patient data

Data about health and medical procedures, especially termination of pregnancy, is sensitive data, and its disclosure can have consequences for the woman. For now, this is only a notification. The prosecutor's office will decide on further steps.
