The Constitutional Court (CC) will be headed by judge Domnica Manole, who was elected president of the CC by secret ballot on April 23 following the dismissal of Vladimir Țurcan, IPN reports.

A decision published on the Court’s website says Vladimir Țurcan was dismissed from the post of CC president by a vote of no confidence. The decision is definitive, takes effect when it is adopted and is published in the Official Gazette.

By another decision, Domnica Manole was named president of the CC for a three-year term. This decision is also definitive, takes effect when it is adopted and is published in the Official Gazette.

Former Socialist MP Vladimir Țurcan, who was appointed constitutional judge by Parliament, was elected president of the CC on August 19 last year.

The same day, the CC suspended the law to ratify the lending agreement between the Government of the Republic of Moldova and the Government of the Russian Federation for the provision of a state financial loan of €200 million to Moldova following an application filed by the parliamentary opposition.
