Lundberg and Siwak take Elektrim to court for damages

The war between Elektrim and its two former heads, Barbara Lundberg and Waldemar Siwak, is gathering pace and will see its finale in court as the two have recently filed a suit against the company demanding zl. 8 million in damages. Both Lundberg and Siwak claim that their right to a severance package plus interest has not been satisfied but neither would comment on the matter. Elektrim has already had to face financial demands from its two other dismissed heads, Andrzej Skowronski and Emilian Bryk, and further payments can be expected as other former Elektrim top officials, Maciej Radziwill, Jacek Krawiec, Jan Rynkiewicz and Robert Butzke also expect their claims to be satisfied. The latest move spurred Elektrim to strike back and the company is now preparing its own lawsuit against its former bosses, accusing them of mismanaging the firm. "We all know what condition the company is now in and who is to blame for the situation," said Zbigniew Jakubas, a member of the holding's supervisory board. "The case will be a long one and the motions of Lundberg and Siwak will have no influence on the condition of the company," he added. (Puls Biznesu, p.6) J.K.
