Road accident victims cheated by the funds set up to help them

What is happening to the millions of złoty which the courts earmarked for the victims of car accidents? This is a question that has yet to be answered. It seems that a multitude of mysterious associations, only superficially claiming to be linked with the relief program, are abusing the funds. Franciszek Szyszko, president of one the dubious organizations was asked by a Gazeta Wyborcza reporter why only zł. 20,000 of the zł. 300,000 that his association received found its way to those who were injured in accidents, his answer was brief and vulgar. Another such institution was set up in Wrocław under the name of Help. Its founders are now sitting behind bars accused of swindling tens of thousands of złoty. The paradoxical aspect of the whole affair is that nobody has a clue as who is in fact supervising the operation of these so-called "relief" institutions, and perhaps worse still, not a soul seems to knows what is happening to the earmarked funds.
