The Institute of Truth wrote that in December 2014, Daniel Obajtek testified as a witness in the trial of Roman and Józef Lis, who were accused of fraudulently obtaining around 200 thousand złoty in EU subsidies. According to the institute, Obajtek denied at that time that he was a silent partner of TT Plast and stated that he owned shares briefly, many years before assuming the office of the mayor of Pcim. He was also said to have testified that as mayor he did not hold any positions in the company nor managed it, and did not collaborate with an employee named Szymon. The institute reminded that in February 2021, "Gazeta Wyborcza" published recordings of conversations from 2009 in which Obajtek allegedly discussed clients, taking over contracts from Elektroplast, and matters concerning TT Plast. The newspaper reported that employees of the company referred to Obajtek as a silent partner. In 2016, Roman Lis filed a report of suspected false testimony and attached recordings. The prosecutor's office refused to initiate an investigation after about a month, finding that there were no signs of a prohibited act. According to the Institute of Truth, Obajtek denied breaking the law, admitted that he had once been a shareholder and knew the owners, but maintained that as mayor he did not work for TT Plast or any other company, and the recordings did not prove a crime. Orlen's office described the publication as a manipulation based on recordings of undetermined integrity. The institute assessed that the testimonies about the lack of professional relations with the company and not managing it did not withstand confrontation with the recordings. #InstytutPrawdy #Obajtek #prawo #korupcja (translated)

The Institute of Truth informed that the Regional Prosecutor's Office in Warsaw has filed an indictment in court against eight individuals regarding irregularities at the National Centre for Research and Development. According to the description, they were accused of, among other things, participating in a criminal organization, fraud to the detriment of NCBiR, issuing false VAT invoices, and money laundering. Investigators established that between 2021 and 2023, companies were created without any actual research and development activities to obtain public funds. The author described SMS correspondence from 2017 between Adam Bielan, his wife Klaudia, and Piotr M., the president of Chime Networks and one of the main accused. The company sought around 123 million PLN for the "Cable" project concerning underwater fiber optic infrastructure. According to the accounts from journalists of the podcast "In Connection with the Investigation," Dominika Długosz and Mariusz Gierszewski, Bielan was supposed to assist in organizing a meeting between Piotr M. and a Qatari delegation, and his wife received a presentation from the company and declared she would pass it on to her husband. Bielan was not charged. The Institute of Truth emphasized that Bielan had denied any close relationship with Piotr M. and involvement in the "Cable" project. He claimed to have met him through Jacek Żalek, and the meeting with the Qataris was of a courtesy nature; later, he was supposed to warn against the project. Żalek, on the other hand, maintained that Bielan and Piotr M. had known each other for years. The author recalled that Żalek was accused, among other things, of exceeding authority and accepting bribes, while the European Prosecutor's Office accused Piotr M. of attempting to defraud funding. The contract for 123 million PLN was ultimately not signed. The author stressed that the correspondence from 2017 does not prove Bielan's involvement in the later grant application, but indicates his contacts with the entrepreneur and assistance in organizing a high-level meeting. He added that Bielan was not included in the indictment. #InstytutPrawdy #NCBiR #oszustwa #przestępczość (translated)

Konrad Krasuski wrote that Gimper was accused of illegal gambling advertising after showing the logo of a company related to poker in his material. He pointed out that TVP aired a piece criticizing illegal gambling on the internet but showed logos of the same company, including one that took up the entire frame. He asked whether a case could also be initiated against TVP and wondered if the station is subject to different regulations. Krasuski deemed it absurd that, as he wrote, context does not matter and one can be prosecuted for displaying a logo. He added that he himself censores such content because he does not want to be sued. #hazard #media #prawo (translated)

Devil Stockton wrote that the Regional Prosecutor's Office in Warsaw has submitted an indictment against eight people in connection with the fraudulent procurement of funds from the National Center for Research and Development. According to the author, the defendants were accused of participating in a criminal organization, defrauding the State Treasury, issuing fictitious invoices, and money laundering. The entry described the findings of the investigation, according to which between 2021 and 2023, companies were created to obtain public subsidies for projects without actual research and development activities. The author referred to materials that journalists Dominika Długosz and Mariusz Gierszewski from the podcast "In connection with the investigation" had obtained. As he wrote, these contained text messages between Adam Bielan, his wife Klaudia Bielan, and Piotr M., one of the main defendants. The correspondence reportedly concerned the "Cable" project, for which Piotr M.'s company was to receive a subsidy of 123 million PLN. According to the entry, Bielan helped organize a meeting between Piotr M. and a Qatari delegation, and Klaudia Bielan received the company presentation and declared that she would pass it on to her husband. Stockton noted that Bielan denied involvement in the project and described the meeting with the Qataris as courtesy. The author also quoted Jacek Żałek's position, who reportedly claimed that Bielan and Piotr M. had known each other for years. He emphasized that Bielan had not been accused so far, before accusing him of close ties with individuals suspected of defrauding public funds. The entry concluded with an insult directed at Bielan and a vulgar allusion to corporal punishment for theft and lying. #InstytutPrawdy #korupcja #afera #polityka (translated)
