NIK informs GetBack investigators
Among the names mentioned in the announcement are the erstwhile Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki and erstwhile Minister of Justice Zbigniew Ziobro.
On Monday, NIK president Marian Banaś was asked about this in RMF FM. As he said, "today we will formally study specified announcement to the Minister of Justice."
– This was the next biggest scandal after FOZZ, which deprived almost 9.5 1000 people of their life savings of 3.5 billion, which is unacceptable. Only due to the fact that state authorities, including the KNF and the judiciary, failed, alternatively of taking care of the interests of citizens and protecting their rights, participated practically in this," Banas stated.
He explained that they neglected their obligations under the bill. “This caused these people to be deprived of the savings of their lives, to the point that even a fewer committed suicide,” said the NIK president.
The case has produced a number of comments. "For the first time in history, during the regulation of the Law and Justice, the state – alternatively of protecting the savings of Poles – drew money out of their pockets. The GetBack affair is 9.5 1000 defrauded citizens and 3.5 billion złoty losses," wrote Euro MP Dariusz Joński.
Ionian: State built a financial pyramid
"The state built a financial pyramid for which all available tools were used. This was the case during the regulation of the Law and Justice, after the approval of then Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki and Minister of Justice Zbigniew Ziobry," he stressed.
"It wasn't just a financial scandal. It was a political and business arrangement in which the state alternatively of standing on the side of people – it stood on the side of dirty interests" – we read in his entry.
