Polarica Berry Group has received notice of the charges brought against Jukka Kristo, former CEO of Polarica Marjanhankinta Oy for aggravated bribery and against the company’s current CEO for aiding in crime. 

The charges allege that Mr. Kristo personally sponsored one individual closely associated with an official.

The prosecutor’s office is also imposing a corporate fine of €80,000 on the company. 

Both Jukka Kristo and the current CEO have denied the charges, and Polarica disputes the basis for the corporate fine.
