Dr. Boris Gîlca has notified the Chisinau City Hall he is leaving his post as Head of Health and Social Assistance. This was announced by Mayor Ion Ceban on his Facebook account.
In his formal request, Gîlcă seeks his resignation “without delay” and says he made the decision “personally, without any pressure”.
However, Ceban says he is not going to accept the resignation. “Only an honorable man would do this so as not to tarnish the reputation of the institution and his personal one. I’m not accepting this resignation. I don’t believe any of the CNA’s Power Point-grade investigations targeting Dr. Gîlcă”.
On Thursday, Boris Gîlcă and the administrator of a municipal refugee placement center were arrested for 72 hours on suspicion of being involved in stealing goods intended for Ukrainian refugees. Nine other municipal employees are investigated as well.
