Former PZU head indicted

An indictment against a former head of PZU, Władysław Jamroży, was sent yesterday to the Warsaw court by the Prosecutor of Appeal. Together with Jamroży, nine others, mostly former PZU employees, are involved in the indictment. The prosecutor charges Jamroży with acting to the detriment of the company, in that he did not verify documents concerning the purchase of land in different parts of the country, which were bought at overvalued prices, and resulted in the company incurring losses of almost zł. 11 million. If convicted, Jamroży may be liable to a maximum of 10 years imprisonment. Another investigation is in progress concerning his activities as chairman of Totalizator Sportowy, a position he took after resigning from PZU. (Rzeczpospolita, p. A5) A.K.
