The Ethics Committee report emphasizes that Gaetz regularly paid women for sex and received illegal gifts. The politician denies the allegations, claiming the money was for gifts.
According to the Polish Press Agency, the report's release is unusual. Similar investigations typically conclude at the end of the congressman's term.
