Another operation in the case of the former Member of the Polish Parliament
The officers of the CBA Regional Office in Katowice have detained three persons - this is a continuation of the activities in the case for which the former Member of Parliament of the Republic of Poland Grzegorz J. was recently detained.
Three entrepreneurs operating in the construction, coal and metal industries were detained in Silesia by the officers of the CBA Regional Office in Katowice. After the completion of procedural activities, they were taken to the prosecutor's office, where they heard corruption charges. Subsequent findings in the investigation indicate that in 2016 the detained men made promises of financial advantages to, among others, a former Member of Parliament of the Republic of Poland, in exchange for leading to the conclusion of contracts with a state enterprise for the performance of repair and construction works. The prosecutor applied non-custodial preventive measures against the suspects, including police supervision and bailout in the amount of PLN 40,000.
The investigation has been conducted under the supervision of the Lublin II Local Division of the Department for Organised Crime and Corruption of the National Public Prosecutor’s Office in Lublin. The proceedings concern accepting financial advantages in connection with the performance of a public function in the years 2016-2018, as well as invoking influence in state institutions and undertaking intermediation in arranging matters in exchange for bribes.
At the end of January of this year, a former Member of Parliament of the Republic of Poland, Grzegorz J., was detained for this case. The man heard corruption charges. The court applied temporary arrest for 3 months against the suspect, which can be changed into a bailout subject to the payment of PLN 500,000 by the suspect, police supervision, and a ban on leaving the country combined with the confiscation of his passport.
