Sports promoter accused of involvement in illegal amphetamine business

Rzeczpospolita has acquired documents from the trial of Ryszard J. a.k.a. "The Professor" who was producing synthetic drugs for the gang of Jeremiasz Baranski a.k.a. "Baranina". According to the documents, famous sports promoter Boleslaw Krzyzostaniak was leading a double life. As well as being an entrepreneur and sports manager, he was co-operating with dangerous criminals. According to the statements of Baranina gang members, he was financing the production of amphetamine and ecstasy. Baranina's right hand man, Wojciech Papina, allegedly received $700 thousand from Krzyzostaniak, who, in his interview with Rzeczpospolita, dismissed the accusations as lies although he confessed to knowing Wojciech Papina and to owing him lots of money. "The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBS) is examining all the allegations implicating Boleslaw Krzyzostaniak with the gang. He may be questioned soon," said a prosecutor.(Rzeczpospolita, pp. A1, A4) M.M.
