Minority shareholders of Invest-Bank Pro-Market, have launched legal proceedings against the company's management, claiming that the latter kept secret the existence of liabilities that have considerably influenced the bank's financial situation. At the same time, Pro-Market has claimed that the bank's auditor, Deloitte & Touche, when drafting the financial report for 2002, did not include the liabilities in the document. The management and majority shareholder, have rejected the accusations. (Gazeta Wyborcza, p. 17) A.Z.
