Calarasi deputy commissioner accused of killing colleague in traffic accident

The Ungheni Prosecutor's Office completed the investigation into the road accident that resulted in the death of a police officer. The deputy police commissioner of Calarasi district denies that he was driving the car when his colleague was killed, Info-Prim Neo reports. The accident happened near Cornesti village, on the Ungheni – Chisinau road, last October. In a communique, the Prosecutor General's Office says it was established that being under the influence, the deputy commissioner lost control of the pool car, in which there was an inferior officer. The car skidded and ran into the building of the former water pumping station in Cornesti. The passenger died on the spot. Immediately after the accident, the deputy commissioner was taken to the hospital, but he refused giving blood for the alcohol test. According to the prosecutors, though there are incontestable proofs showing he is guilty, the deputy commissioner maintains he wasn't in the car that night and the car was driven by the officer who died. The case will be sent to court after the sides are familiarized with the materials of the investigation.
