The former CEO, named only as Jacek K. under Polish privacy laws, was the head of state-run refiner from 2008 to 2015.
Prosecutors said the three were detained after an extensive probe that included checks of decision-making processes at Orlen by Poland’s Central Anti-Corruption Bureau (CBA) in 2017.
Anti-corruption investigators last month detained four people suspected of orchestrating a deal harming state-owned oil refiner Lotos.
Lotos said at the time that the detentions by CBA officers concerned a case dating back to 2011.
