Thousands rally Warsaw against controversial judicial bill

Description

Thousands of citizens and hundreds of judges and prosectors from all over Europe rally in Warsaw against a controversial law which could punish judges who question the government's controversial court reforms, a legislative move that critics argue undermines judicial independence.
