A commission for assessing Alexandr Stoianoglo’s job as Prosecutor General has been formally set up by the Superior Council of Prosecutors (CSP).

Its members include Mariana Alexandru, a former prosecutor with Romania’s Anticorruption Directorate; ex-judge Lidia Bulgac, proposed by CSP; international expert Drago Kos, proposed by the President’s Office; and lawyer Angela Popil, representing the Ministry of Justice. Representing the suspended PG on the commission will be lawyer Ion Matuşenco.

CSP member Constantin Șușu said the parties involved may challenge the commission’s members, but no such requests have been filed so far.

Within 30 days, the commission is to evaluate the job done by Stoianoglo during his tenure as Prosecutor General and return a verdict. If it’s “unsatisfactory”, the CSM may ask the President to dismiss him. Maia Sandu will likely do that, since it was her who initiated the evaluation procedure.

Stoianoglo has been suspended from the job and is currently under house arrest, facing charges of abuse of office, perjury and facilitation of crime.
