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)
