850 thousand PLN from the Alior Bank foundation was supposed to support the 2023 referendum. The prosecutor's office accuses.

Five individuals, including former executives of the Alior Bank Foundation, face charges for misusing funds and failing to fulfill their duties. The prosecution claims they improperly managed donations intended for various causes, which were instead used for a referendum campaign. Three significant donations were made shortly before the referendum, raising concerns about their legitimacy. The funds were allegedly redirected to media companies for advertising related to the referendum. The accused could face prison sentences ranging from three months to five years. The Alior Bank Foundation, established in 2022, is currently being liquidated due to its financial ties to political initiatives.
