The investigation covers 'participation in the activities of a foreign intelligence service directed against the Republic of Poland and for a terrorist offence, consisting of deliberately causing a fire on the premises of the WB Electronics factory using a device containing flammable materials'. The fire broke out shortly after midnight and was contained by firefighters in two hours. The Internal Security Agency is assisting police. No further details were released due to confidentiality.
