Searches are carried out at the home of the president of the National Integrity Authority (NIA) Rodica Antoci.  The information was confirmed for IPN by the press officer of the Persecutor General’s Office Mariana Cherpec.

Details will be provided when the investigation measures are completed.

The NIA’s press service will make comments on the issue later.

At the end of last month, the press reported that the NIA head is suspected of unjust enrichment. An anonymous letter said that Rodica Antoci committed a series of illegalities in the process of managing the institution’s funds. Then the NIA denied those assertions. Also in December, Rodica Antoci stated that the members of her family were threatened and she informed the responsible authorities about this. She expressed her conviction that the pressure exerted on her family is related to her job and came from persons suspected of unjust enrichment.
