The judges of the Cahul Appeals Court are to take decisions on a number of requests made by prosecutors and the lawyers for Ilan Shor, ex-president of the Administration Board of Bănca de Economii.

Contacted by IPN for details, lawyer Denis Calaida said the prosecutors on January 22 presented a number of documents, two sets of new proofs, as they consider. The prosecution demands to attach them to the file. On the other hand, the defense demands to prove the connection with the examined case.

In June 2017, the Chisinau City Court sentenced Ilan Shor to seven years and a half in jail for causing considerable damage to the state by swindle and abuse of trust. The sentence was appealed. In June 2019, Ilan Shor disappeared from the public sphere and was charged with illegal leaving of the country. On August 15, 2019, he was stripped of parliamentary immunity.
