More turmoil for Złote Tarasy

The charges pertain to decisions made in 2001 and 2002, such as the contract whereby the gmina contributed the property right to the land located near Warsaw's central railway station to the Złote Tarasy project. The prosecution has found out that the suspects did that while the land's heirs attempted to win back their property rights in court. The value of the land was also artificially lowered to zł. 101 million. The work on Złote Tarasy continues despite the fact that in July the Administrative Court blocked its construction permit due to the Przyjazne Miasto eco-association's protest against the entire project. Złote Tarasy developer, ING Real Estate, is now waiting for the Supreme Administrative Court decision.(M.L.)
