Gazeta Wyborcza claims Air Polonia's bankruptcy was part of a conspiracy
President of Air Polonia Jan Litwiński boasted that his company posted a net profit of zł.1.2 million in H1 and that it sold nine out of ten tickets on each flight, which is more than national carrier LOT does. Now he has changed his story and says, "We went bankrupt as the investor, which was to grant us a capital injection, unexpectedly withdrew from the deal." Gazeta Wyborcza acquired documents according to which shareholders signed an agreement envisaging moving company's assets to a new firm to be called Air Polonia LLC. The "old" Air Polonia would be only left with debts. Then the new entity would receive support from the Crescent Irish-Jordanian fund. Most likely passengers would not feel any difference, but the stakeholders would be heavily hit by this operation. However, the shareholders did not reach an agreement and Crescent has withdrawn, as it could not waste time. (Gazeta Wyborcza, pp. 1, 25) M.M.
