Five people were detained by officers of the Central Anti-Corruption Bureau in connection with the investigation regarding irregularities in the re-privatization of real estate in Warsaw. The case also concerns decree and compensation decisions. Among the detainees are former employee (Jacek W.) and former legal adviser of the Real Estate Office of the Municipal Office of Warsaw (Bogusław D.), Warsaw notary (Leszek Z.) and two businessmen engaged in the purchase and sale of real estate (Mirosław B. and Krzysztof D.).

Findings of the investigators from the CBA indicate that the former employee of the Warsaw City Hall received bribes from the previously detained by the CBA well-known buyer of claims (Marek M.), in exchange for favor in conducted return proceedings concerning tenements in Śródmieście. Jacek W. was detained today for the second time by officers of the CBA in connection with the ongoing investigation.
