Temporary restrictions in Chisinau, during the visit of the President of India

Access to certain public places in the capital will be temporarily limited on Monday, July 20, between the hours of 07:00 AM and 10:00 PM, in the context of the official visit to the Republic of Moldova by the President of the Republic of India, Droupadi Murmu. The restrictions target the center of the capital and the routes to and from Chisinau International Airport, reports IPN.

The City Hall of Chisinau mentions that during the specified period, access will be restricted in certain public places, as well as the holding of meetings and mass demonstrations in the perimeter of the streets where the official procession will pass. Also, in the targeted areas, road repair works, interventions on electrical, thermal, water supply and sewerage networks, as well as tree cleaning or cutting works, will not be able to be carried out during the application of the restrictions.

The exception is the socio-cultural events for which prior notifications have been submitted and which have been coordinated with the Chisinau City Hall and other competent institutions for the respective period.

The General Inspectorate of Police and the Capital Police Directorate will ensure public order and will inform individuals and legal entities who organize or intend to organize public actions in the targeted areas about the instituted restrictions.



The former head of the Parliament’s Legal Department, Ion Creanga, accused of treason, remains under judicial control for another 60 days. The information regarding the extension of the measure was confirmed for IPN by Emil Gaitur, the spokesperson for the Prosecutor’s Office for Combating Organized Crime and Special Cases.

Last week, Ion Creanga appeared before the magistrates after several months of absence. The court informed the defense that, according to the conclusions of the forensic medical examination, the accused is fit to participate in the trial. At the same time, it was ordered to examine the case file in general procedure, with the commencement of the judicial investigation.

In the same meeting, the prosecutor requested the extension of judicial control and the possibility of enforced appearance in case of non-attendance at court. The defense described the move as unfounded, arguing that the extension of the preventive measure is not based on concrete facts.

The next court session is scheduled for the month of September.

The former official is accused of treason and conspiracy against the state. According to prosecutors, during the period 2023-2024, he allegedly maintained correspondence and had clandestine meetings with an assistant to the military attaché of the Russian Federation Embassy in Chisinau. The former head of the Legal Department of the Parliament was detained in July 2024, when he allegedly received 500 dollars from a Russian official. Ion Creanga pleads not guilty.

Environmental inspectors in Floresti have detected dozens of cases of illegal water use for irrigation, as part of control actions carried out in June. As a result of the checks, fines of over 52 thousand lei were imposed, reports IPN.

According to the Environmental Protection Inspectorate, the checks were aimed at verifying whether individuals and legal entities comply with environmental legislation and use surface water resources legally. Following the checks, environmental inspectors drew up 43 minutes of contravention. Also, the condition of the aquatic basins and the related hydro-technical constructions was checked.

The Environmental Protection Inspectorate warns that water resources should only be used in compliance with environmental legislation and based on the permits provided by law. The inspectors mention that checks will continue in the following period, to prevent violations and protect the quality and quantity of water resources.
