Swiss Radio therefore dismissed a lawsuit filed by a former PostBus manager, as reported Wednesday evening by SRF. The decision is also open to the Keystone-SDA news agency. The former administrator can appeal the decision in cantonal court and later in federal court.

The court of first instance also ordered the plaintiffs to bear court costs of approximately CHF 18,000. The claimant has to pay the postal party compensation of 45,450 francs.

The Postbus thing started in the fall of 2017. At the time, the Federal Office of Transport (FOT) found, during a regular audit, that Postbus Switzerland had been systematically hiding profits in regional passenger transport since 2007 through illegal rebookings, thereby obtaining subsidies.

In December 2018 and January 2019, Swiss Post repaid the entire CHF 205.3 million to the federal government, cantons and municipalities. After the incident, all Postauto board members resigned from their posts. Postal magnate Susanne Ruoff also resigned in June 2018.

The Federal Police Department (Fedpol) is investigating the case on the spot after the Federal Criminal Court removed 31 inquiries from the files at the instigation of the three suspects.

The investigators—two senior federal judges—were not civil servants and had no legal basis for their appointment. Fedpol accused the six suspects of misleading the BAV about the company’s actual profits to avoid subsidy cuts in the years that followed. (SDA)
