Corruption scandal in volleyball federation

The Central Anti-Corruption Bureau (CBA) has confirmed the arrest of Mirosław P., head of the Polish Volleyball Association (PZPS) and the head of a security services company. PZPS earlier said that CBA officers entered its offices on Thursday, asking for documentation related to the organization of the 2014 FIVB World Volleyball Championship in Poland. “This is a difficult and despicable issue for the federation, but it requires an honest investigation,” PZPS spokesperson Janusz Uznański told Polish Radio. “There are no charges so far and a court will decide on the possible guilt, so we should not make quick conclusions.” According to media reports, the CBA is suspecting irregularities in the procedure of hiring security agencies during the tournament.
