Prosecutor convicted of bribery
Prosecutor convicted of bribery
The magistrate was convicted to 10
months in prison, together with restriction of some rights. Constanţa judges kept the prosecutor in
custody from the beginning of November 2008. The court concluded that the chief
of Section of Penal Prosecution is guilty as charged of both infractions of
bribery. According to the indictment, on 13th of November 2008, the
accused claimed several feeding products from an informer, in order to give a
favourable sentence in a lawsuit inquiring him for an infraction in connection
to driving on public roads. On 21st of November 2008, the prosecutor
claimed another 1,200.00 lei from another informer, in exchange of the same
"favour".
On 24th of November, the prosecutors say that Viorel Vasile received the required feeding products, then he was caught in flagrante delicto while he was taking 800 lei. The lawsuit was sent to Constanţa after the High Court of Cassation and Justice sustained the request of movement made by the prosecutor, which expressed his doubts about the impartiality of Timişoara judges. When finding himself before Constanţa court, he tried to prove his innocence and he declared that actually he was setting the informer up, while eventually he got set up. The sentence pronounced by Constanţa Court of Appeal may be appealed to the High Court of Cassation and Justice.
