Bribe in exchange for competition rigging at the District Governor’s Office

A civil servant and an entrepreneur from Pomerania have been detained by the CBA in the act of transferring a financial advantage.

An employee of the District Governor’s Office of Starogard Gdański and a businessman from Słupsk were detained by officers of the CBA Regional Office in Gdansk moments after handing over a financial advantage.

The transfer of the bribe, amounting to PLN 20,000, took place in a street in Gdańsk on 25 December at about 2 p.m. The money handed over was a 'gratification' for the proper preparation of competition documentation guaranteeing the selection of the offer of the Słupsk entrepreneur.

Evidence gathered in the case was submitted by the CBA to the prosecutor's office, where activities with the detainees continued. Both detainees faced corruption charges at the Pomeranian Field Division of the Department for Organized Crime and Corruption in Gdańsk, which is supervising the ongoing proceedings. The men pleaded guilty and provided explanations. The prosecutor applied non-custodial preventive measures against them. Their places of residence and the District Governor’s Office in Starogard Gdański were also searched.

Currently, procedural activities are being continued in this case.
