News / Dirty deeds of foreign guys in Poland [128]

A witness called the officer on duty at the Pszczyna police station and noticed a car driving unsteadily. The called police followed the car described by the reporting person.

The officers turned on light and sound signals, giving the driver a signal to stop the car. The man behind the wheel completely ignored it and instead of stopping, he accelerated rapidly. The law enforcement officers chased him. On Zofii Nałkowska Street in Pszczyna, the driver lost control of the car and went off the road, landing on the fence of the property at Bolesława Prusa Street - the Silesian Police reported on Saturday.

It turned out that the driver was a 36-year-old Ukrainian citizen who had over 2 per mille of alcohol in his blood . Additionally, the man did not have a driving license. Now the court will decide his fate.

History / What should Russia and Poland do to become if not friends, then at least not enemies? [945]

Respect to other two decent Russians who were sentenced by the Kremlin regime for their honourable behaviour.
voanews.com/a/russian-poet-who-recited-antiwar-verses-sentenced-to-7-years-in-prison-/7416508.html

A Russian poet was given a seven-year prison sentence on Thursday for reciting verses against Russia's war in Ukraine/
Moscow's Tverskoi District Court convicted Artyom Kamardin on charges of making calls undermining national security and inciting hatred, which related to him reading his anti-war poems during a street performance in downtown Moscow in September 2022.

Yegor Shtovba, who participated in the event and recited Kamardin's verses, was sentenced to 5½ years on the same charges.

This is Russia, the prison of nations.

Hey, forum imperial putinists, when you act like those two poets, I will consider you my Slavic brothers whose hand I can shake or even bow to you in respect.

But right now you are stinking putinists and the only thing I can do is tell you:

News / Dodgy PRL-holdover judiciary finally reformed [420]


Here is a short story of financial frauds and scams in certain credit union called SKOK closely connected with PiS. The first charges appeared in 2016 but after PiS had come into power in 2015, PIS prosecutors delayed the case as long as possible. It

An indictment has just been brought to court against 32 people associated with SKOK Wesoła in Mysłowice: former heads of the management board of the union, members of the supervisory board, important employees and members of their families.

The Katowice prosecutor's office accused them, among others, of: for mismanagement, misappropriation of property, accepting financial benefits, certifying untruths in documents, forging documents - enumerated on the website of prosecutor Małgorzata Zawada-Dybek, spokeswoman for PO in Katowice. The notary who certified the financial scams is also expected to appear in court. The damage resulting from the allegations was calculated at PLN 282 million.

Spółdzielcza Kasa Oszczednościowo-Kredytowa Wesoła was established in 1993 with its headquarters in Mysłowice and connections with the Mysłowice-Wesoła mine. It had branches in 12 voivodeships and 64,000. members - customers who paid PLN 650 million. Wesoła, like all credit unions, belonged to the National Fund, headed by Grzegorz Biernacki, later a PiS senator and an important person in Kaczyński's party.

In 2007, after PiS lost the elections, many prominent party officials found shelter in SKOKs. When they returned to power , they spread a protective umbrella over SKOKs and repaid their benefactors as much as possible.

From the very beginning, Wesoła fell into the hands of its own people - primarily activists of the mining Solidarity movement and their families. Loans were granted to people without creditworthiness for bribes. The prosecutor's office found that members of the supervisory board signed contracts with their wives, children and aunts for fictitious services, which were completely unnecessary. Children (allegedly) handed out advertising leaflets, wives (allegedly) praised Wesoła during social gatherings... and everyone took money for it.

It is therefore hardly surprising that in 2013, SKOK Wesoła recorded a loss of over PLN 160 million and was on the verge of bankruptcy. The Polish Financial Supervision Authority stepped in, and two years later a receiver was appointed, who dismissed all members of the management board and some of the management staff on disciplinary grounds.

The case was brought to the prosecutor's office and dragged on for eight years. Since 2016 - I found out at PO in Katowice - excessive involvement in the investigation against Wesoła was frowned upon by its superiors. If it weren't for the change of government, it would probably drag on forever... Towards the statute of limitations.

News / The Baltics states rely on Poland as their main defender against Russian aggression?? [213]


BS. He is like Hitler who risked the war with Poland against her alliance with France and GB. He correctly predicted Western countries would not come to aid militarily if Poland collapsed quickly. And it happened.

Putin thinks in the same way - if he invades and quickly occupies the Baltics, the West and NATO won`t react militarily.
