In June last year, Paweł Ciuch suffered a right leg injury: a foundation block fell on his leg burned in a fire. As a result, there was an infection that, in combination with concomitant diabetes, ended with an amputation of the legs above the knee.

As a result, a bailiff entered the farm. As the “Tygodnik Agricultural” explains, the injured decided to sell out his machines, thanks to which most of the receivables were managed.

This decision was followed by another, on compensation – 7,000 155 PLN ” – informs” Tygodnik Rolniczy “.
