Arrest of former Fame MMA participant
Dawid A., a 35-year-old resident of Mazovian Voivodeship and former fighter at Fame MMA and Prime MMA events, was remanded in custody for three months — reports sportowefakty.wp.pl citing TVP Info. The man was charged with leading an organised criminal group engaged in prescription falsification and trafficking in psychotropic and opioid drugs.
Officers from the Economic Crimes Unit of the Piła police believe that Dawid A. conducted criminal activity for nearly three years. He was also accused of making the proceeds a permanent source of income. He faces a sentence of up to 15 years in prison.
Scale of criminal activity
The investigation revealed criminal activity on a large scale. Police detained a total of 11 people, including two doctors who issued false prescriptions. Seven suspects, including Dawid A., remain in custody. Medicines dispensed by pharmacies across the country were subsequently resold in Poland and abroad.
Losses inflicted on the National Health Fund are estimated at over one million złoty. Police seized 1.2 million złoty in cash, an Audi worth over 200,000 złoty, gold of comparable value, large quantities of drugs, and several thousand illegally issued prescriptions.
Start of investigation
The case began in 2025 following a report from a Piła resident. The man noticed a false prescription on his patient account, despite not having scheduled any medical appointment. Officers from the Economic Crimes Unit of the Piła police quickly uncovered the entire network.
The former freak fight participant competed in four fights at MMA events and took part in the programme "Ex on the Beach".
