A Polish group, repre- sented by Bogoslaw Bagszik and Andrzej Gozirowski, ap- proached Australian Jewish entrepreneur Jack Liber- man with an offer to pur- chase, for $85 million, what local reports are saying is half the Israeli firm's stock. The Poles reportedly turn- ed the money over to an Israeli trustee, but the deal was put on hold because the authorities were reluctant to approve a transaction that would transfer part of Israel's oil reserves to a company whose background is not clear. Both the sellers and Israeli authorities voiced doubts about the transaction. By law, the sale is not sub- ject to government approval, because Paz is a private company. The Liberman group is allowed to sell shares in Paz so long as it does not sell to "hostile elements" or endanger Israel's security in any manner. In an attempt to clear things up, Mr. Bagszik said he is Jewish, and that he received Israeli citizenship under the Law of Return. But the Interior Ministry now has doubts about his Jewishness. Israel's daily Yediot Achronot reported that only a year ago, Mr. Bagszik in- troduced himself as a "genuine Christian" at a meeting of Polish busi- nessmen. But last week, he told reporters that his Jew- ish parents died when he was 4 years old, and therefore he is Jewish, as are his four children. Meanwhile, his partner has also submitted a request for Israeli citizenship, but has so far not appeared at the Interior Ministry despite an official request to do so. The ministry announced it would check the backgrounds of both men once again. If Mr. Bagszick is found to have provided false testimony, the interior minister will annul his Israeli citizenship. Interviewed last week, Mr. Bagszik himself sounded skeptical. He said if all par- ties agree not to go ahead, there would be no deal.
