RMF FM suing KRRITV for at least zł. 10 million

Private radio station RMF FM has filed for legal proceedings to be launched against the Treasury Ministry and the National Radio and Television Council (KRRiTV). RMF FM claims that the Council, particularly some of its members including Włodzimierz Czarzasty and Juliusz Braun, treated the broadcaster badly and took illegal decisions against it. Therefore, RMF FM is demanding more than zł. 10 million in damages from the Council. According to the company's representatives, the KRRiT hindered the expansion of the station by depriving it of various investment possibilities. "The legal proceedings may drag on. We are estimate that the claim could increase to zł 100 million," said the broadcaster's spokeswoman Anna Kozłowska. (Parkiet, p. 7)
