Poland's Pegasus and Illegal Surveillance Committee will convene on Monday, amid allegations the previous government spied on political opponents.

A parliamentary commission - dubbed the Pegasus and Illegal Surveillance Committee - will begin investigating the alleged use of such surveillance technology by the country's past rulers.

The use of Pegasus spyware by the Law and Justice Party (PiS) - which was ousted in elections last year - appears to be much wider than initially suspected.
