Controversial businessman Zbigniew S. sentenced

A businessman who has published documents from an investigation into the so called "tape scandal" on his Facebook profile which rocked the political scene last year, was sentenced for a year in prison in a second-instance ruling for fraud. According to the court, Zbigniew S. (surname withheld in line with Polish law), committed the fraud while selling a Lexus automobile worth PLN 50,000. As it was his second offense, the penalty will not be suspended. The businessman is eligible to apply for the postponement of the verdict execution, however the court will decide whether he will wait for the court's decision in prison or at large. Zbigniew S. said in a robust statement that he does not intend to go to jail.
