KGHM sues board member over TV allegation that 75% of them are thieves
Press spokesperson of Polish copper mining company KGHM Polska Miedz, Jerzy
Pietraszek, said yesterday that its management is going to sue the firm's
supervisory board member Wiktor Bladek for offending the management on
public television. In a program "Tylko u Nas" ('Only here') aired by Polish
state television, Bladek said that "three quarters of KGHM's management are
thieves". "The management will demand public apologies from Bladek, coupled
with additional funds raised for charity." says Pietraszek. Bladek replied
that he would be able to substantiate his accusations with evidence. In
June, KGHM former deputy president of finance Marek S, was accused of
abusing his powers, costing the firm losses of zl. 2 million.
