Former policeman Ion Stratulat, who was shot dead on the afternoon of September 19 at a terrace in the center of the capital city, had a sinful past, Prosecutor of Chisinau Municipality Ion Diacov has told Info-Prim Neo.
“He committed many irregularities. I remember I personally took part in an arrest. The person did not have the possibility of escaping, but he shot him dead in the nape,” said the prosecutor.
Ion Diacov confirmed that Ion Stratulat was involved in the case of businessman Igor Basarab, who was shot dead in a park of Chisinau’s Rascani district two years ago.
