District Court dismissed all bribery charges related to the Slovenian export project

In its judgment issued today, 30 January 2014, the District Court of Kanta-Häme has dismissed all bribery charges related to the Slovenian export project of 2005–2007. The State Prosecutor had charged five persons with aggravated bribery in relation to the Slovenian project and demanded a corporate fine to be imposed on Patria Land Services Oy.

”The District Court's decision was as expected. We consider the decision justified, both juridically and in light of the evidence. Patria has no cause for appealing against the judgment with regard to the principal matter. We will now review the justifications in detail,” says General Counsel Sirpa-Helena Sormunen.
