On Tuesday, the Committee for the Defense of Democracy organized a silent protest called "Light for the Constitutional Tribunal" to express opposition to the ongoing crisis surrounding the Tribunal and to support its judges. Demonstrations took place in major cities like Warsaw, Gdańsk, and Kraków, as well as smaller towns. Protesters held signs and lit candles, emphasizing that the Tribunal is not owned by any political party or government. Participants voiced their concerns about political interference and the need for judicial independence. The protests featured music and calls for peaceful assembly, with many expressing a long-standing commitment to defending constitutional justice in Poland.
