The Institute of Truth described Adam Hofman as a politician who was removed from PiS after the Madrid affair and ended his political career, but maintained contacts and knowledge of power mechanisms. According to the entry, Hofman later said that he "practiced under master Kaczyński." After leaving politics, Hofman co-founded the R4S agency. The Institute of Truth, citing CBA documents, reported that in just over a year, over 4.3 million PLN flowed into its account, including nearly 1.2 million PLN from state-owned companies and related entities. The matter was taken up by the CBA as part of Operation "Argon," and later publications emerged about the so-called Wrocław arrangement. The author noted that no charges were brought against Hofman. The entry stated that in 2020, the Hungarian company R4S entered into a contract with MOL worth 10,000 euros per month. The agency's team included former Lotos president Robert Pietryszyn, and its tasks were to involve analyzing Polish politics, identifying important individuals, and assisting in organizing meetings with government representatives. At the same time, the process of merging Orlen with Lotos was ongoing, and MOL ultimately bought 417 Lotos stations. According to the Institute of Truth, Hofman acknowledged that foreign companies benefited from his knowledge of political realities. The author also wrote that in 2020, BitBay, now Zondacrypto, became a client of R4S. According to findings by Wirtualna Polska, the agency was to conduct image activities prior to the "Superwizjer" report. In June, the prosecutor's office closed the proceedings regarding BitBay for the second time, but the National Prosecutor's Office deemed this decision premature and ordered the case to be reopened. The proceedings were closed again in 2022. The Institute of Truth emphasized that there is no evidence of R4S's influence on the decisions of the prosecutor's office. According to sources from Wirtualna Polska, on April 8, 2025, Hofman and Pietryszyn met in Monaco with Przemysław Kral, the head of Zondacrypto, and the conversation was supposed to concern assistance in connection with planned publications by "Superwizjer." Hofman denied making such an offer. The Institute of Truth compared this meeting with R4S's previous work for BitBay and wrote that the same people and contacts appeared in both cases. According to the author, it was these contacts that were the most valuable capital Hofman derived from PiS. #InstytutPrawdy #Polityka #Korporacje #KapitałPolityczny (translated)
