sentences:  According to media accounts and later official reports, Barbara Blida was named as one of the officials who received illegal payments from businesswoman Barbara Kmiecik, one of the richest women in the country during the 1990s, whom the press had dubbed "Alexis of Polish mining" or "Alexis of Silesia", after the money/power-hungry "Alexis Carrington" character on the then-popular prime-time soap "Dynasty".Following her 2005 arrest for corrupting public officials involved with the so-called "coal mafia", Kmiecik allegedly named a number of officials, including Barbara Blida, although the authorities did not release any names, nor details of Kmiecik's revelations.On the early morning of Wednesday, 25 April 2007, representatives of ABW (Agencja Bezpieczeństwa Wewnętrznego [Agency of Internal Security]) entered Blida's house in Siemianowice Śląskie with a prosecutor's warrant to arrest her and search the house for evidence.
