Two detainees. They invoked influence in special services

A Warsaw entrepreneur and former legal adviser from Toruń have been detained by the Central Anti-Corruption Bureau. This is a continuation of the investigation of the so-called group of disguises.

The officers of the Regional Office of the Central Anti-Corruption Bureau in Katowice detained two persons connected with the so-called group of disguises, who impersonated officers of special services (the Internal Security Agency, the Military Counter-Intelligence Service, the Central Anti-Corruption Bureau).

This time, the detained persons are an entrepreneur from Warsaw and a former legal adviser from Toruń. The men, in exchange for bribes, extended a "protective umbrella of services" over two companies. They invoked influences in special services, justice and tax authorities. In addition, the entrepreneur is accused of participation in an organized criminal group.

The detainees will be transferred to the Regional Prosecutor’s Office in Katowice where they will be charged.

In January last year, in connection with this case, eight persons impersonating special service officers, suspected of paid protection and acting in an organized criminal group have been detained, while in April 2018 another four persons have been detained, including former Minister of Justice Andrzej K., who was charged with paid protection by the prosecutor's office.

The case is still developmental.
