Corruption curbed

The National Police Headquarters revealed that from January to the end of March, there were 1,664 cases of corruption, while in 2004 the number amounted to just 1,000. In Warsaw the number of corruption charges submitted to the prosecutor's office have doubled. The police praise the changes in the law introduced over a year ago, which allow a person giving a bribe to escape being prosecuted if they inform the police about the bribery.
