In June, a resident of Bolesławiec County reported the theft of a phone worth PLN 1,100. Operational activities led officers to the person in possession of the lost property.
The 57-year-old claimed that he had found the phone under a bench in the city centre. He intended to return the lost item but did not do so, and was therefore charged with misappropriating found property. This is an offence punishable by a fine, restriction of liberty or imprisonment for up to one year.
The recovered phone will be returned to its rightful owner.
