WARSAW, Poland, Feb. 18 (UPI) -- New documents found in Poland purportedly show that Lech Walesa was a paid informant for the Communists before becoming the leader of the Solidarity movement.
The 279 pages of material, seized from the home of the late Gen. Czeslaw Kiszczak, Poland's last interior minister of its communist era, allegedly include a signed commitment to provide information and payment receipts with the name of Walesa, and "Bolek," his code name. Lukasz Kaminski of the National Remembrance Institute, Poland's government-affiliated historical archives, said the documents appear to be genuine.
