On November 16, 2015, basing on Art. 139 of the Constitution of Poland, Duda pardoned former Central Anticorruption Bureau (CBA) head Mariusz Kamiński and three CBA officers convicted by a court of 1st instance in the so-called Land Affair (Afera gruntowa),[19] marking the first pardon granted by a president before reaching a final verdict.[20] According to some lawyers (including professors Jan Zimmermann – Andrzej Duda's doctorate promoter, Leszek Kubicki – former Minister of Justice and Andrzej Zoll – former president of the Constitutional Tribunal) Duda has breached the Constitution of Poland.

Mr Kamiński (pictured right) was convicted of abuse of power in March this year, sentenced to three years in jail, and banned from holding public office for ten years. He and three others from Poland’s Anti Corruption Bureau (CBA) were found guilty in connection with the payment of bribes while investigating the “Land Affair’ (Afera Gruntowa) in 2007.
