Court jails two men over theft of Lexus owned by PM Tusk's wife

The verdict

The Elbląg District Court has sentenced Łukasz W. to three years in prison for car theft. His accomplice, Stefan N., received one year and three months in prison. Both sentences are custodial, and the verdict is not yet final. The two men must also cover court costs, which exceed 110,000 zloty.

The theft in Sopot

According to the indictment, the two men are accused of stealing a Lexus in Sopot on 10 September 2025, acting jointly and in agreement. The car belonged to the wife of Prime Minister Donald Tusk. Police located the vehicle quickly after the theft. The charges say one of the men broke the vehicle's security using an unidentified device designed to open cars without authorization.

Evidence and the court's reasoning

In its written reasoning, the court said the evidence leaves no doubt that the men committed the offences. Biological traces belonging to Łukasz W. were found in the stolen cars. For Stefan N., the court relied on surveillance footage and logins from his phone, which it said show he helped with the theft.
