A bill to amend and supplement the local Penal Code was drafted in the Transnistrian region. According to this, a person who goes to the Prosecutor’s Office of Moldova or to the European Court of Human Rights can be prospered and sentenced to three to seven years in jail, civic activist from Tiraspol Gennady Ciorba, former political prisoner, announced through his Facebook page, IPN reports.

According to Gennady Ciorba, the bill was proposed by the chief prosecutor of the region Anatoly Guretskii and this reveals the “agony of the current government”. “Prosecutor Guretskii, on whose recommendation Oleg Horjan was stripped of parliamentary immunity in breach of the law and this was jailed; who signed the indictment in my criminal case, even if the case was fabricated and this was really evident; and who swiftly fulfills the orders of his sponsors, suddenly decided to submit a bill to amend and supplement the Penal Code,” wrote Gennady Ciorba.

Earlier, civic activist Gennady Ciorba, former political prisoner, in a news conference at IPN stated that the de facto government in the Transnistrian region, which is supported by the Sheriff Holding, does not allow any criticism to be leveled at it and any attempt to say the truth is thwarted also by using the so-called “courts of law”.
