The parliamentary Committee on the investigation of the bank fraud must find that the General Prosecutor's Office, in recent years, has delayed the examination of the billion theft case. Also, the same committee should establish the co-participation of other state institutions in committing this fraud. The opinions were expressed on "Time of Expertise" show, Jurnal TV, IPN reports.
Economic expert Veaceslav Ionita has mentioned that all the materials that were included in the Kroll report are at the Prosecutor's Office. In his opinion, the Prosecutor's Office should carry out an analysis of all actions or failure to take action in the case of the banking system fraud. In his opinion, the parliamentary committee on the bank fraud should establish that the General Prosecutor's Office has deliberately delayed examining the case.
Lawyer Ion Crețu claims that the National Anticorruption Center (CNA) has obtained the turnover data from the looted banks since the beginning of December 2014, after the government granted the state guarantees. In addition, CNA was able to track online all transactions that took place during that period. "On November 25-26 there were transfers of 153 million euros, 113 million dollars and other transfers. In those days, already after the release of state guarantees was approved, this kind of money was transferred”, the lawyer mentioned.
And political commentator Corneliu Ciurea believes that there are many objections concerning the Prosecutor's Office, however this institution is silent for the time being. In his opinion, the leaders of the Democratic Party, who spoke up, will be targeted by investigations and the withdrawal of their immunity cannot be ruled out. "We do not know what is going on now at the Prosecutor's Office and how these investigations are being carried out," the commentator says.
Former MP Stela Jantuan argues that the purpose of the specially created parliamentary committee should be to determine the co-participation of state institutions in this banking fraud. In her opinion, the looting of the banking system did not happen only in 2014, but in order to make it happen, certain legislative and normative changes were made and all these were done under the cover of IMF requirements and Moldova-EU Association Agreement provisions. "This was an unprecedented situation when the state of Moldova, through the former government, simply plundered its own citizens. All those who participated, especially the representatives of state institutions, must be held responsible for this," specified Stela Jantuan.
