TVN SA, a Polish broadcasting group controlled by Discovery Inc., accused the government of trying to intimidate journalists after agents entered the home of a camera operator who authored an investigative report about neo-Nazis.

Internal Security Agency (ABW) officers on Friday delivered Piotr Wacowski a summons to the prosecutor’s office on charges of propagating Nazism, TVN said in a statement on its website. Wacowski was the co-author of a feature run by TVN in January about meetings of Polish and German neo-Nazis in south-western Poland.
