Interior Minister orders investigation as police chief awaits resignation news

The Interior Minister Ryszard Kalisz has still not made any decision over whether to accept the resignation of the deputy head of the police Zbigniew Chwaliński. Chwaliński was responsible for police tenders and logistics. He submitted his resignation after the Super Express daily revealed that the force had bought 24 vans from the Kulczyk Tradex company without a tender. Kalisz said that he would make a decision about Chwaliński's resignation after he received all the material from an inspection he ordered at the Police Headquarters which should be completed by the beginning of next week.
