Police Central Bureau of Investigation officers have detained 7 persons suspected of participating in an organized criminal group dealing with illegal waste disposal.
Among them was an authoritative from the Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship, who was to supply confidential information to criminals about vehicles associated with law enforcement. The activities of CBS officers were carried out on the orders of the prosecutor from the Łódź Branch of the Department for Organized Crime and Corruption. Arrested, according to investigative findings, were active in transporting waste to and deploying illegal landfills at designated locations.
The papers collected in the course of the proceedings show that that authoritative utilized his powers to check data in administrative databases.
