Visite à l’homme seul, Roman Polanski
François-Bernard Mâche et Michaël Levinas, membres de Académie des Beaux-Arts (Institut de France) ont décidé de se rendre à Gstaad ce samedi 8 mai, pour témoigner directement à leur pair Roman Polanski de leur solidarité et de leur amitié dans la situation qui est la sienne aujourd’hui.
Compte tenu de l’émotion de ses pairs, dont avait déjà fait publiquement état l’Académie lors de son arrestation, ils ont voulu à nouveau, au moment où la menace d’une extradition inique de Roman Polanski se précise, et après avoir informé l’Académie du sens de leur démarche, inscrire cette visite dans un état d’esprit que chacun d’eux a souhaité préciser dans un texte bref :
“Summum jus, summa injuria. Les Romains, inventeurs et experts en droit, avaient ce proverbe pour dénoncer les excès du formalisme juridique, lorsqu’il risque de se retourner contre la vocation essentielle de l’institution judiciaire : défendre les victimes.
Si j’ai souhaité me rendre auprès de Roman Polanski pour lui témoigner toute ma sympathie, c’est parce qu’il est aujourd’hui précisément une victime d’un tel excès formaliste, et qu’il ne demande qu’à être traité comme le seraient tous ceux qui n’ont pas sa notoriété. Si celle-ci ne lui donne aucun privilège, elle ne doit pas non plus le soumettre à des sévices exceptionnels, après une vie où ils ne lui ont pas été épargnés.”

“En me rendant chez Roman Polanski, ce samedi 8 mai, je veux exprimer à titre personnel mon soutien à l’homme seul, dans sa solitude totale, aux prises avec un Droit qui risque de s’ appliquer au détriment de la Justice.
Au cours de cette visite, je souhaite aussi témoigner de mon engagement aux côtés de tous les êtres humains, persécutés, enfermés, oubliés, sans défense, femmes et hommes, enfants et adultes.
Nous savons que Droit et Justice ne sont pas toujours synonymes.
Il arrive, hélas, que l’exercice du droit s’aveugle et applique ses lois selon des modalités déloyales.
L’exercice de la justice sait préserver certes le Droit, mais aussi l’humain dans son dénuement ultime.
Cette vraie justice et ses valeurs, savent respecter le Temps, ses prescriptions et ses grâces.
C’est aussi cela, les Droits de l’Homme.”

Olivier Corpet, directeur de l’Institut Mémoires de l’édition contemporaine (IMEC), a tenu à se joindre à eux dans une démarche identique de solidarité active.

Polanski detention on case expired in Poland and France is a direct threat to Polish citizens in Switzerland who were forcibly removed from the United States, and what to move there
instead. United States with torture,
property theft and ethic expulsion forces to legalization of the highest United States academic
degree violating basic human rights, freedom of speech and scientific research presumably
to promote falsely Soviet science in the US as Soviet WWII allied:
On June 8 of this year (2007) I was driving with my own car from Logan (near Salt Lake City) from home in the State of Utah where I live. I was planning to fill the immigrant petition to the INS after the employment visa H1B, even if I would have to leave the United States to legalize the status, currently I was on B1 visa.
I was driving to Calgary in Canada in the province Alberta, when I got to the border crossing in Coutts/Sweet Grass in the state of Montana, one of very few where the Canadian and the American side share the same office building.
First the immigration officers of the Canada forbade me the entry on Canadian territory because I had no valid Canadian visa. I was not worrying neither about Canadian or American visa because the Polish press reported (Nowy Dziennik around 25th of March) that Poland is the VWP (Visa Vaiver Program) country i.e without visas like the rest of the European Union since the February, so it is also not subjected to issuing visas by Canada.
My tourist-business visa expired only 9 months before this date. The Canadian side returned me to the American side when I was ordered to wait in detention 5 hours since 3 am for the immigration officers supervisor. After a few hours the immigration officer arrested me according to the article 236 of the Immigration and the Naturalization Act. I remained silence and I was transported to the arrest in Shelby, and after tree days to the arrest in Boulder near Helena in the State of Montana.
Next, with the combination of planes and buses I was transported for about one week to the immigration court in Florence in the state of Arizona. On June 25 because of severe living conditions in the deportation camp and bedsores I have asked the immigration judge for the voluntary departure from the USA. On July 27 I was taken with the prison van to the cargo airport in Santa Ana in the
State of California, from where I was taken by the KLM plane to Amsterdam.
I do not understand the aggressiveness of United States immigration services against my person i.e. my arrest by the USA during the DEPARTURE [sic] from the Unites States and while driving my own car and during the legalization of acts allowing illegal immigrants remaining in the USA, the membership of the Republic of Poland in the European Union and lack of any other nations of the European Union in deportation arrests of the USA, and also the fact of having the house in the USA and the way I was traveling.
I was cut from home and few hundred thousand dollars property in the USA. While traveling for one day to Canada I found myself after two months of arrest at Okecie airport cut from my home. I am the world famous scientist and I have never worked illegally in USA neither outside my profession. I got to the USA on F-1 visa and later worked on H1B visa and frequently traveled on B1/B2 visa.
In 1991 I graduated Warsaw University of Technology and next after sending about 25000 letters to all universities on the world and passing the American Great Matura GRE and TOELF I managed to get into PhD studies in the University of Rochester in the State of New York.
In the USA I found myself really because of poverty in Poland and not friendly attitude of the European Union to Polish passport.
In 1992 I was accepted to the University of Lancaster, but because of the lack of the Republic of Poland membership in the
European Union I was being requested thousands of pounds tuition fees which I was able to avoid in the USA. Despite of the fact that I am traveling on Passport of Republic of Poland I have also the citizenship of the Federal Republic of Germany and the second
place of permanent residence in Germany.
In the arrest of the immigration court in Florence I was the only one of two Polish citizens for about 200-500 Latinos per day arrested for crossing the Mexican border.
