The application to outlaw the Shor Party filed to the Constitutional Court by the MPs of the Party “Dignity and Truth Platform” was rejected as inadmissible. According to the CC, the applications to check the constitutionality of parties can be submitted by the President, Parliament Speaker, the Government, minister of justice or prosecutor general. The MPs said they will ask these subjects to lodge such requisitions, IPN reports.
PPPDA leader Andrei Năstase told a news conference that their application was examined in a hurry and without the participation of the parties. The PPPDA’s approaches to clear the political class, especially the legislative body, of corrupt people and thieves will continue and the party will make an additional effort so as to have more MPs in the future Parliament and to have a say.
MP Dinu Plîngău said they prepared a bill to amend the law on the status of political parties, the Electoral Code, the Contravention Code and the Penal Code so as not to allow violations of the legislation in the future, including in the electoral sphere. “Today we will send letters to the subjects stipulated by the Code of Constitutional Jurisdiction, namely the President, prosecutor general, minister of justice, Parliament Speaker so that the approaches made by the PPPDA are undertaken by these institutions that can ask the CC to pronounce,” stated the MP.
At the end of March, the PPPDA MPs challenged the constitutionality of the Shor Party that, according to them, by its actions and goals, goes against the rule of law principle, which is contrary to the Constitution. They said they attached evidence of the violations of the electoral legislation and other deviations from the legislation committed by the Shor Party in the elections in which it competed.
