A Belarusian citizen has offered a bribe to a Polish border guard official. As a result, the Belarusian was detained. The incident occurred at the border crossing Babrouniki on January 12.
According to the press office of the Podlasie border service, the driver of a heavy truck tried to give 10 euros to a Polish border guard officer in order not to get a penalty for the absence of a written “ADR instruction” necessary for passing the control.
